1st Recipe down

Hello everyone. To start off the feeling of this blog, I thought it would be nice if we started out with some nice home cooking first. This recipe is from the Italian scheme of things, it makes a delicious family meal and is called Pasta E Fagioli. It will take about 30 mins to prepare. I have added my own little hint and gone somewhat astray from the original recipe, here is the list of ingredients and what I would say as the measurements:) Let me know what you think!

1 1/2 tsp. oil
2 lb. ground beef
6 oz. onions; chopped
7 oz. celery; diced
24 oz. tomatoes; canned and diced
44 oz. beef stock
3 tsp. Oregano
2 1/2 tsp. Pepper
5 tsp. Parsley; (chopped, the more fresh the better)
24 oz. spaghetti sauce
8 oz. dry pasta (any kind will do)
If you are wanting it a little more runny, then add 1 qt. of water.
Preparation: Saute beef in oil in large pot until beef starts to brown. Add onions, carrots, celery and tomatoes and simmer for 10 mins. Add beef stock, oregano, pepper spaghetti sauce and noodles to the pot. Simmer until vegetables are tender, about 45 mins. Enjoy!

  4. I am a terrible cook as well, but when it comes with a recipe I think I can manage it so maybe I'll give this one a try. Italian food is my favorite.
