Tonight's dinner was a rip-roaring success and the kids gobbled it up! All thanks go to
Ragu for making providing this recipe just when this tired Momma need it!
I love this recipe because it has all my "pantry" staples- noodles, meat, cheese and sauce and after a
week day like today, I needed something quick, easy and mindless!
Get out one large skillet/pan. Brown 1lb. ground beef, add 1 jar of spaghetti sauce and 2 cups of water. Stir and add a box of noodles(I did corkscrew noodles). Stir occasionally so it won't stick. Let simmer for 10-15 mins. Add 1 cup of mozzarella cheese. Allow cheese to melt. And EAT with bread and a salad!!! (follow the link here to get the FULL recipe!)
Low down- While devouring my
second large plate of pasta(
maybe Bubba was right)?! , I tried to think about how much I spent on this meal. We ate half of the dish, so we will have leftovers tomorrow night. I spent a little less than $3 on the 1 lb of meat at Publix. The box of noodles was 30 cents (sale at Publix with coupon). The jar of sauce was about a dollar or so (also on sale at Publix- B1G1 free with coupon).... so add the can of crescent rolls and a salad, its probably $8-$10 for two dinners for our family. Not bad!
A
big thanks to Ragu for having all day commercials on Nick@Nite. :o)
I was not paid or given anything for doing this blog post....
