“Investment Cooking”
Hamburger - continued
Oven is at 350 degrees
Meatloaf Mix - Bowl B
Form contents into a meatloaf. I like to use a broiler pan so that the grease runs down away from the meat. Bake for 45 minutes on lower shelf of oven. When done, cover in catsup and bake for 15 more minutes.
ANOTHER IDEA… You can stuff this mixture into 4-6 bell peppers. Put into refrigerator overnight. In the morning, pop peppers into crock-pot for 8 hours on low. Top with catsup or steak sauce and heat for an addition 30 minutes.
Meatballs - Bowl A
Roll contents into meatballs (about 1 ½”) and put in a shallow baking dish. (Spray the dish with “Pam” for easier clean up). Bake meatballs on upper oven shelf for about 15-20 minutes until done. If it’s too hot for the oven, microwave them until firm. Cool thoroughly. Place on a cookie sheet and flash freeze for about 30 minutes to an hour. Put meatballs into a container and cover with canned spaghetti sauce. (About 1/3 of an industrial size can). Refrigerate if you plan on using within 3 days or freeze for later use.
While you can use the meatballs to serve with spaghetti, you can also make meatball sandwiches. This is a great meal for the “teens cook” night - Heat meatballs and sauce, ladle into French rolls or hot dogs bun, cover with mozzarella cheese and parmesan. Microwave until cheese is melted.
Spaghetti Sauce - Skillet
Cool sauce and freeze (freezer tip). You can use this sauce for a number of dishes other than spaghetti. Freeze a couple of cups for a minestrone soup base in the future. Freeze a couple of cups and use as a sauce for French bread pizzas. One of my family’s favorite is Ravioli Lasagna.” It’s easy and filling. Depending on the size of your crock-pot, you’ll need:
3-4 cups of mozzarella cheese
3-4 cups of frozen cheese ravioli
3-4 cups of pre-made meat sauce
Spray your crock-pot with Pam cooking spray. Layer sauce, frozen cheese raviolis and mozzarella cheese twice, ending with mozzarella on top. Cook on low for about 6-8 hours. Serve with a salad and French bread.
