Hungarian Goulash. Tonight salad only. A simple guacamole: finely diced onions, yellow bell pepper, very ripe garden tomato, a small clove of garlic, diced avocado. Lime juice, and a couple of dashes of Frank's Red Hot Original. Next course, light ceasar salad. Just romaine, garlic, (I'm putting some tomato in {I guess it's no longer a ceasar}, because it is pretty ripe and I need to use it up, some yellow bell pepper, and some packaged light ceasar dressing which came with the package of romaine that I got at the market for nothing. They were giving out bags of romaine to anyone who bought anything at their stand. It's in pretty good shape. There ya go... |

Fresh pizza dough (side effect of having the table out for making the doggie biscuits) with sauce, 4 different leftover cheese bits from the party, green bell peppers, onions, canned mushrooms (we like them canned for this use best), slivered garlic, ham bits, olives (green and ripe), summer yellow squash and crumbled home made hot sausage. Side dish is spinach made in the home made sausage leavings with a little miso dressing. -- |

Oh, and stir fried spinach with > garlic. >What's on your menu? Mmmmmmmm...what time is dinner? I LOVE spaghetti and can even eat it for breakfast! Sunday is the one day of the week I usually don't cook, so we eat leftovers, or go out to eat, but hubby has volunteered to put his culinary skills to use in the kitchen and is making his favorite casserole "Saturday Night Special". Extra lean hamburger browned with minced garlic and diced onion. Add a can of diced tomatoes, 22 oz. pork & beans and a few "dashes" of Worcestershire sauce for "zip" and salt & pepper to taste. Put in a casserole and top with slices of lean bacon (he trims the fat off as best as he can) and sprinkle with brown sugar. I'll make cornbread to go with. I spend every Sunday morning in the kitchen baking, as our kids and grandkids come over in the afternoon, so that's why I don't care to cook that day, as feel I spend enough time in the kitchen, but I love to bake and could do it for hours on end, if someone would go behind me and clean up my mess! :-) Judy |

Coincidentally, it will be leftover pasta and meat sauce from last night. Mine was sauce made from diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, onion, out of fresh garlic, so used garlic powder, many spices and loads of black pepper and a little red pepper. I used my immersion blender to smooth it out because I don't like chunks of tomato, and added browned ground beef and about an inch of a stick of pepperoni chopped up fine. It definitely had bite. The pasta was a mix of small shells, fusilli and penne pasta. |

I used Penzey's Italian herb blend, having already seasoned the meat with salt & pepper. The Italian blend contains basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme and cracked rosemary. Jill |

I like Penseys Tuscan Sunset too, its less coarse texture enables use as a sprinkle without cooking... I like it sprinkled on mayo in ham n' cheese sandwiches, good sprinkled on tuna salad too, and it's very good sprinkled on a cheese omelet. I sprinkle some on pizza too. http://www.penzeys.com/cgi-bin/penze...eystuscan.html |

A recipe starts with a specific shape of noodle (elbow macaroni) and it becomes popular. Some people put it on any shape of noodle because what shape is available tends to beat the exact performance of the exact shape. But the name was already there so it gets used even though the name is no longer accurate. |

Let's say I have a wholesale box of spagetti but I have to go to the store to get a different shape of noodle. It doesn't have to be about performance of the noodle as such but rather about the effort involved. My parents used the words spagetti and noodle interchangably at times. It was incorrect useage but it reflected a simple pragmatism. If the recipe said spagetti and they had a box of some other shape of noodles that's the box they used. |

No it wasn't incorrect usage, spaghetti is indeed a noodle. Many pasta shapes are interchangeable. I rarely buy elbows but there's at least a dozen shapes that will work as well and better... I much prefer cellentani to elbows. For macaroni salad rotelli works better. People buy elbows because they are typically the least expensive shape, elbow dies are less complex to fabricate and maintain, they also produce pasta at a higher rate. |

I don't have a problem with the food. I'd happily eat it. I just don't see why it would still be called chili mac. Now, Cincinnati chili is another matter. That is normally served on spaghetti, as one option. -- Dan Abel Petaluma, California USA |

I use elbow macaroni for mac & cheese and the long strands for meat & tomato sauces. I like wide or medium egg noodles with just a little butter, S&P and chopped parsley or dill weed. Of course those are also served with some sort of meat with gravy on the side, like smothered pork chops ![]() Jill |

That low class nasty dago bitch has her taste in her ass... there is no one way to season tomato sauce, or any sauce. And there are several methods by which one can accomplish equally good results.
