Baked Ziti

Another great one from Becoming Betty. This was very good but it made a lot! I recommend cutting the recipe in half. We ended up eating it for about 4 days but it was just as good reheated! Visit her website at http://becomingbetty.blogspot.com to see more great recipes!

INGREDIENTS/INSTRUCTIONS:
Red sauce:
Cook 2 lbs. sausage in large skillet, then add:
1 onion, chopped
1 28oz. can tomato puree
1 16oz. can diced tomatoes
1 6 oz. can tomato paste
1 tsp. marjoram
1 tsp. oregano
1 Tbs. parsley
1 tsp. basil
1 tsp. thyme
2 Tbs. sugar
6-7 garlic cloves, minced
salt and pepper to taste
*Cook 2 boxes of Ziti pasta, drain and set aside.

White sauce:
1 cube butter
2 8oz. packages cream cheese
2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
1 pint whipping cream (This made it very rich. I think next time I will try half and half or whole milk.)
2 tsp. minced garlic
*Simmer in sauce pan until smooth and creamy.

*In a large pan, layer:
Ziti noodles
White sauce
Red sauce
Cover with grated mozzarella
*Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.

Taste of Home

I have not been posting for a while because I have been cooking like crazy out of my new cookbook, Taste of Home Comfort Food Diet Cookbook. I can't post any of these recipes since Taste of Home does not give them out for free. I highly recommend this cookbook! Don't be scared of the word diet! Every meal we have tried from this has been so yummy! So, if you really want some good eating, go get this book! They sell them at Sam's Club for $12.00 if you are interested! There are several different versions and I am sure they are all great! You also get a free 1 year subscription to their magazine with the purchase of this book. I love it!!

Pinterest, Pinterest, Pinterest...my new best friend!

So, this blog has been thoroughly neglected simply because I am ADDICTED to Pinterest!! I absolutely love this website. I have planned all of my meals off of Pinterest for the past few months and have rarely even used my blog. So....for lack of time to juggle so many things and because Pinterest is just SO much easier than posting all the recipes on a blog, if you would like to see what I am cooking, follow me on Pinterest! We have eaten mostly new meals every time I plan a menu because there are so many fabulous recipes on there. Also, you can pin recipes to their site when you find good ones. So, goodbye to all my faithful friends!! I won't delete the blog so the recipes that are on here will stay but I most likely will not be posting anymore...unless I find some way to do it in a less time consuming way! Happy cooking to you all!!
