  1. This is childhood comfort food. It isn't supposed to be kicked up *anything!* Only thing I do differently is to add some butter. This *isn't* pasta a la something!!!
     
  2. I picked this to make as a side dish as it sounded so simple...I added some parmesean cheese and italian spices as I thought it did not have much taste...but a good quick side
     
  3. This was one of my childhood favorites,. Haven't fix it in years. I really enjoyed eating it again. Thanks Shellbelle. Bullwinkle
     
  4. I've made this countless times over the years. It is a quick side dish to just about anything. Instead of using tomato sauce, though, I have always used a can of tomato soup (undiluted). I really like the flavor of the soup addition.
     
  5. We have this atleast once a week. I add butter and lots of pepper to ours. It is quick, easy, and everyone likes it. My toddler asks for it...lol. Thanks for posting.

Before I joined Zaar, I could barely boil water properly. So, when someone compliments my cooking and asks me where I learned how to cook, I'm proud to say I learned from a cooking website and a few store-bought cookbooks. I have a black and white cat named Allie who is a little over 2 years old. She was adopted from the Humane Society. I really feel like we "rescued" her because she was sick when we got her and the Humane Society, as well-meaning as they are, just didn't have the resources to take care of her properly and she surely would have been euthanized. She is very healthy and happy now. She has tons of toys to play with, gets plenty of food and treats, gets to go out in the backyard to catch bugs and eat them, and someone is home with her almost all the time to cater to her every whim and fancy, lol. I don't have any children, Allie Cat is my baby, lol. I developed a serious, unrelenting crush on Colin Farrell after I saw him in a movie called "American Outlaws", and I have been in love with him ever since....... well, as much as you can "love" someone you've never met. I love t.v. and movies (always have) and I'm a huge fan of pop culture. Two of my favorite shows about pop culture are "Best Week Ever" on VH1 and "The Soup" on E!. Grease is my favorite movie of all time, followed in a close second by Forrest Gump. I came across this site by accident, I don't recall what recipe I was looking for, but I know that I found it and a whole lot more!
