OK So this one is quite easy. And please note, it is very easily multiplied, so it can be used to feed small armies (i have proven this fact time and again)

Mostochelli

ingredients:

1 green bell pepper
1 small yellow onion
1 pound ground beef
1 pound italian sausage (hot or mild to taste)
1 regular size package pepperoni
1 box mostachelli pasta (i sometimes use rigatoni in its stead)
1 jar spagetti sauce (muchroom is prefered)
2 cups shredded mozerella cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Prepare pasta per box directions

Meanwhile, dice pepper and onion. Cut up italian sausage into bite size pieces. Slice pepperoni slices in half and separate.

BROWN the meats and veggies until no pink remains in ANY of the meat. Drain (i personally also rinse at this point to cut the fat, but this is also a matter of preference)

When pasta is finished and meat mixture above is browned, combine all ingredients plus spagetti sauce in a 13x9 baking dish. Spread evenly. Cover with cheese.

Place pan in oven. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until cheese is golden ...

This serves lots o people! Enjoy!

Mikes Chicken

1 whole chicken
1/2 cup parsley
1/2 cup rosemary
1/2 cup thyme

4 eggs
Bread Crumb

BBQ Sauce:

1 cup Ketchup
1 cup Molasses
Worchestershire sauce
Chili Powder
Salt
Pepper
Hot sauce
2 cans tomato puree
1 SMALL can tomato paste

First, in a medium sauce pan, add all of the BBQ sauce ingredients into the sauce pan, and reduce until thickened

Now, after that is done, take the chicken, and separate it into all of the appropriate pieces. Then, take the eggs, and in a separate bowl, crack the eggs, and whisk them.

Add all of the chicken seasonings together with whatever amount breadcrumb you want.

Dip the chicken into the egg, then dip into the crumb mix and place in a pan (sprayed with PAM of course )

Next, place chicken in oven for approx. 30-45 min

Take it out, and add (if u want) your newly made BBQ sauce, and place in oven for anther 50-10 min

Then, serve it , cause its UBER GOOD!

~sniffle~ I've searched my whole life for Okonomiyaki....~cries~ Thank you Sak...You've saved my soul.

I'd write my recipe for Chili here but I can't remember without me card.

[Skibirdi]

oooohhhhhhhhh must reply.

Ok, so I am really into healthy and vegetarian cooking. Here is a favorite of mine:

Vegetable Couscous

-2 cups chopped tomatoes
-1 can garbanzo beans
-Bell Pepper, chopped (how ever much you like of which ever one you like. I normally use one large red...or two small of different color)
-1 small chopped onion, chopped
-1 TBSP chopped oregano
-1 tsp paprika
-1 tsp olive oil (can use vegetable oil, but I prefer olive myself)
-Garlic (I love garlic so I chop up four cloves, it mostly cooks out anyway)
-5 cups hot cooked couscous (for those of you that don't know what this is, it is kinda like rice. It is sold at any grocery store near the rice)
-Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top

Heat all ingredients except couscous and parmesan to boiling in a saucepan. Serve over couscous and sprinkle with cheese.

Enjoy!

since the chinese new year is next saturday, i figured i would find a lovely culinary delight from the packed full land of china, where half of hte world's population exists

Hot Chinese Mustard Sauce:
4 tablespoons Chinese dry mustard
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 tablespoons pickled ginger liquid
1 lemon, juiced
Pinch turmeric
1 tablespoon sugar
1 egg yolk*
1 tablespoon chile oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 cup peanut oil

Aromatics:
1 (2-inch piece) fresh ginger, peeled
3 large cloves garlic
2 green onions
Pinch red pepper flakes
1/2 cup peanut oil
Pinch salt
Pinch black pepper
Pinch sugar

Filling:
1 large onion, julienned
1 medium carrot, julienned
1/4 pound shiitakes, discard stems, julienned
1 large red bell pepper, julienned
1 large yellow bell pepper, julienned
1 small green cabbage, julienned
Peanut oil, for stir-frying
Salt and pepper
1/4 pound glass noodles, soaked in water for 10 minutes, chopped into smaller strands
1/4 cup mushroom soy sauce
2 tablespoons chile paste
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 bunch cilantro leaves, chopped

To form spring rolls:
Spring roll wrappers
1 egg with 1 tablespoon each water and cornstarch, beaten together for egg wash
Peanut oil, for deep-frying
Prepare the Hot Chinese Mustard Sauce. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except the oil. Stir until well blended. Slowly whisk in the peanut oil until emulsified. Refrigerate, covered until needed.

Prepare the aromatic mixture. In a food processor, combine the ginger, garlic, green onions, and red pepper flakes. Turn on machine, slowly add oil, and process mixture to a puree. Saute mixture for 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and sugar. Set aside.

Prepare the filling. In a wok, stir-fry each vegetable separately in peanut oil. Season with salt and pepper. Drain and transfer to a mixing bowl. Stir in noodles, mushroom soy sauce, chile paste, sesame oil, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool completely. When cool, blend the filling mixture with the aromatic mixture. When ready to form the spring rolls, squeeze out all the excess liquid.

Make the spring rolls. Place about 1/2 cup of prepared filling per spring roll wrapper. Roll and seal edges with the egg wash. Repeat the process until all filling is used.

In a deep pot, with about 4 cups peanut oil heated to 350 degrees F., deep-fry in batches of 4 until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Trim off the ends and slice diagonally. Drizzle top with Hot Chinese Mustard Sauce. Serve immediately.

*RAW EGG WARNING The American Egg Board states: "There have been warnings against consuming raw or lightly cooked eggs on the grounds that the egg may be contaminated with Salmonella, a bacteria responsible for a type of food poisoning. Healthy people need to remember that there is a very small risk and treat eggs and other raw animal foods accordingly. Use only properly refrigerated, clean, sound-shelled, fresh, grade AA or A eggs. Avoid mixing yolks and whites with the shell"

Ok boys and girls, this one is a little bit harder than the other recipies that ive posted (courtesy of FOODTV.COM). This can probably pop off about 20 - 24 spring rolls. Thank Mr. Wolfgang Puck for this one (we all love you Mr. Puck)
