Recipes

I feel the need to preserve a couple "accidental" recipes that I've....made up(?) recently. The reason I put the question mark there is because I'm sure many people have similar recipes to these ones. However, this frog likes to cook so here are some recipes for you. None of these are really properly named either so feel free to offer suggestions or use your own name if you use these. The recipes are guaranteed bad for you but have both tasted really good.


Ground Beef Quesadilla Things
Ingredients:
1 lbs ground beef
Garlic, Cayenne, Chili powder, Red Pepper Flakes
Soft Tortilla Shells
Grated Mozzarella Cheese
Spaghetti Sauce

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425 C. Brown ground beef and season to taste with the above spices. Add in two TBSP of spaghetti sauce. Let simmer

Spread thin layer of spaghetti sauce on tortilla shells, add layer of mozzarella cheese, add cooked/seasoned beef, layer of mozzarella cheese and second tortilla with spaghetti sauce side down. Place in oven until cheese is melted and bubbly - makes a half dozen or so small tortillas.

Baked Penne Pasta

Ingredients:
1 lb Ground Beef
1 Bottle Spaghetti Sauce (or make from scratch if you're so inclined)
Penne Pasta
Grated Cheddar/Mozzarella Cheese (really any kind/combination of your standard pasta cheeses will do)
Garlic, Oregano, Rosemary

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400 C. Brown ground beef and season to taste. Add spaghetti sauce and simmer. Boil pasta. Put small amount of sauce on bottom of small casserole dish. Put layer of cheese, noodles, sauce - repeat until dish is full. Top with layer of cheese, cover and place in oven. Bake until cheese is bubbly and brown on edges (if you're like me and enjoy some crispy cheese, otherwise you might want to take it out earlier).

Well those are them and at least now I can find them again if I'm so inclined. If anyone else enjoys these recipes that's great too.
