This is something we make quite often at my house. My teenage sons love this! I usually double the recipe and triple the sauce. The great thing is you can make it as spicy as you would like...if you don't...
This was my huband's grandfather's recipe. It is always a big hit when I make this or share the recipe. Very easy to make just slow cooks all day. Please don't the long list scare you this is very easy...
I was craving this one day when I didn't feel like going to the trouble of making lasagna. So I looked through several cookbooks but none of the recipes I found really hit me, so I kind of combined a few...
This is from the January 1952 issue of Woman's Day, and is officially titled "Fletcher's Special Cheese Spaghetti" and was submitted to the magazine by Mrs. J.L. Fletcher of Gainesville Florida.
Apparently this dish is named in honour of a carters wife, who travelled everyday to Rome from the countryside with her donkey laden with fruit, vegetables and wine. I don't know how true that is, but...
This recipe comes from mom. She's one of the best cooks I know and this recipe stands on its own. Very easy to make. Can be made vegetarian by omitting the meat and sauteeing vegetables in olive oil.
This family recipe originalted from the Molise Region of Italy. Dry Spaghetti is one recipe from my cookbook, "The Eve of Seven Fishes - Christmas Cooking In The Peasant Tradition".
This extremely hearty sauce has a secret ingredient. (Not so much, now!!) This sauce clings to pasta, unlike many others that leave a puddle of juice on the bottom of your plate when you are done. The...
This dish is excellent if you would like to invite someone very special for a romantic dinner. It's sweet, strong and mysterious... Try it and you will fall in love - I promise! Note the magic cloudberry...
My mother always made this homemade spaghetti sauce. It is VERY different from anything in a jar. The flavor is smoky, due to the bacon. Depending on your tastes, you may want to reduce some of the bacon....
Classic tender meatballs are full of flavor these having lamb and herbs in them. Not much lamb because a little goes a long way. These are baked for ease and less fat. If you are using jar sauce you can...
This recipe is from a 28 oz can Progresso Tomato Puree. It is by far the BEST bolognese sauce I have ever tasted. It is zesty, robust and meaty; the way bolognese should be. Great lasagna filling as well....
I also like to add minced garlic to saute with the onion to taste and a handful of grated Parmesan cheese at end of cooking time. This is good! Recipe courtesy of Paula Deen.
Lots of veggies and thick Chinese noodles soak up the delicious sauce I was lucky enough to try out in a food demo. Feel free to use your favourite, the Blue Dragon Sweet and Sour variety is similar to...
There are two variations in this. The first is to add an 8 ounce can sliced mushrooms to step 1. The other variation is to use 2 tablespoons chili powderinstead of 2 teaspoons chili powder.
I made this recipe up when I was craving a pasta dish, but also wanted to keep it nutritious and full of veggies and healthy protein b/c I had just had a hard work out. This turned out great so I needed...
It's a easy and tasty mushroom alfredo sauce--plus it's light and healthy. I made this last Saturday for lunch. DH loves it so much! Make some butter garlic toast as side dish:-)
Italian for "brother devil", fra diavolo sauce is usually tomato-based and always spicy. Although not traditional, mushrooms offer an earthiness that balances the heat. For a truly fiery dish, increased...
This is a really quick and easy dish with heaps of flavour. I love to cook this when I want something fresh and yummy to eat but don't have a lot of time. Enjoy!
This is a super quick version of the traditional Italian pasta dish. It is easy to cook & perfect for a midweek meal when you want something really tasty that wont keep you in the kitchen for hours!
