My favorite is Chicken alfredo with mushrooms and spinach over tricolor pasta! My grandmothers recipe, and also veal piccata. I= proud to be italian!
cheap and easy... food that is. We always called it sausage and potatoes: 4 regular potatoes 1" cubes or 8 reds halved, 2 onion the same, 1 pack of polish sausage sliced about 3", and some minced garlic. Pull out the steamer tray and in a stock pot put in enough wather so it does not touch the ingredents then put in the potatoes then about a teaspoon of minced garlic, next will be the sausage and then the onion. Make sure that everything is layered potato, garlic, sausage, onion. Turn up the heat and when the potatoes are cooked, it is done. My wife likes adding cabbage :hsnono: but she boils it in a different pot. This is a quick meal and is great leftover. Andy
beef steak...basically chop some beef like top serloin and put it in a pot. then add some soy sauce w/ lemon juice, and some water to tame the taste down. last, add onions on it, and bam you have filipino beef steak! yummy. i usually eat this with some plain white rice.

I used to regulary make big mystery scramble like the one below for breakfast when I had to feed a big family: I always eyeballed measurements and made way too much of this when I cooked.. maranade thinly sliced zucchini in balsalmic vinagar and garlic for a couple mins thaw out frozen tater tots chop some red onions beat several eggs ( adding a touch of sweet rice wine if ya want) chop/press some fresh garlic add small amount of extra virgin olive oil to skillet for frying add tots, salt and pepper and mash the tots around a bit then add onions brown the tots add zuccini and let the onions clear or caramelize turn the heat down and then scramble in the eggs, mozerella or string-cheese and add garlic Eat or inject directly into arteries. enjoy.
A personal favorite of mine is Goulash..... super easy, not the traditional style but close enough for me: egg noodles (thicker the better) ground beef onion (prefer vidalia) green pepper tomato sauce....your choice (I like to use a store brand then add some chopped vine-ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs or dried, and touch of red cooking wine) Cook the sauce for as long as you can adding diced green peppers and half of the onion When ready cook other half of the onion with meat (get the onion kinda clear first before adding beef) season however you like Combine cooked pasta with beef and sauce....enjoy....really quick and easy
lets have a g2g where everyone bring's his/her favorite dish!! I'll bring fried rice or something. And cannarella, that sounds soooo good i absolutely LOVE potatoes!! and garlic, and onions, and sausages.
I havent cooked a homecooked meal in a while, the last thing I did cook was out of Patti Labelles cookbook corn cassaroll it was great. another one I like is chopped up burger meat or sirloin cooked in a pan and bbq baked beans get the vegetarain and add bbq onions and meat. bake or come to a boil to taste. you can sub turkey or what ever kinda meat you want.
