Easy Pizza Noodle Bake

This is yummy, y'all!!  It is the perfect size for our family, but it can be easily doubled and baked in a 9x13 for larger families or planned leftovers.  I love that you don't have to boil the noodles - just dump them in the pan dry.  Do be sure to spray the baking dish well with cooking spray.  You can use any noodles you like.  The recipe calls for egg noodles. We like mini lasagna noodles. Just use what you have on hand.
  You can also use spaghetti sauce instead of the pizza sauce if you like.  Or, make your own easy pizza sauce by combining:

2 - 8 ounce cans tomato sauce
1 tablespoon dried Italian seasonings
1/2 tsp Garlic salt
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)

Easy Pizza Noodle Bake

3 c. uncooked wide egg noodles
1 lb. ground beef, browned
1 (16 oz.) jar pizza sauce
1 c. water
3/4 tsp. salt
Dash of pepper
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
"Toppings" of choice - pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, green peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc.  These are optional.  You can just top with cheese!

8 oz. Mozzarella cheese, shredded

Put uncooked noodles in bottom of 8 x 8 inch pan that‘s been coated with cooking spray. Mix next 6 ingredients together. Pour over noodles.  Add toppings*, if using. Cover with foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake 10 minutes longer. Remove from oven and sprinkle with cheese.  Return to oven long enough to melt cheese. 

*I use turkey pepperonis and Canadian bacon.  I add these when I add the cheese.  I think peppers and onions and the like would need the full baking time to be tender.

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
