GERMAN NOODLE BAKE (OVEN OR CROCK POT)



German Noodle Bake (Oven or Crock Pot) image

From the 1989 edition of our church cookbook. This is one of my favorite ground beef casseroles. I thought I had lost it forever and have been searching and racking my brain for months trying to remember all of the ingredients. I was at my mom's house the other day and was flipping through this cookbook - and look what I found! It freezes and reheats well; it's a good dish to prepare ahead of time since it can be refrigerated and then baked later. **Note** This also works great in the crock-pot. Simply layer the ingredients as you would in a casserole dish and cook on low for about 4 hours.

SPATZLE (LITTLE GERMAN NOODLE DUMPLINGS)



Spatzle (Little German Noodle Dumplings) image

These free-form dumplings make an unusual side dish, sprinkled with grated cheese or toasted bread crumbs. They can be made in hot broth instead of water, and some recipes instruct forcing the Spatzle dough directly into a boiling soup to cook, just minutes before the soup is brought to the table. Cooking time includes the boiling of the water. Serving size is hard to determine depending whether it is served as a side dish or main dish.

HOT GERMAN BUTTERED NOODLES



Hot German Buttered Noodles image

If you have ever been to the Bavarian inn in Frankenmuth MI this what they use on top of their hot buttered noodles (crushed Ritz buttery crackers). I can taste them just writing this. Yum Yum. I use Maggi brand chicken bullion cubes in the box of eight. You can usually find them in the Mexican section of your super market. They are extra large, really soft and dissolve easily. Do not add salt to this recipe, the bullion is loaded with it and most people use salted butter so you should be covered there. Use more butter if you like, 6 ozs seems just right for me. Enjoy
