ANTM Week 2

So in our house Belinda is the favourite -  well she's Talias favourite - because she wears glasses Mumma  - I want to wear glasses - HMM No you don't- Though what chance does she have with Richard and I both glasses wearers?

Diner tonight is

Meatballs and Spaghetti

Love this one -so simple, and the girls gobble it up

woollies does the meatballs already in the butchers section... Coles doesn't -so its up to you
Me I do the woolies thing  but heres a link to recipe on www.taste.com.au if you don't have a woolies near you

2 dozen meatballs
Jar of pasta sauce ( tomato one ) - I use one of the garlic and herb ones and add more LOL
Tin crushed tomatoes - herb and garlic again...
Onion
Garlic (crushed) 1 tablespoon)
Spaghetti
Grated Cheese

Fry onions in some butter until translucent  - add tablespoon of garlic
Place in bottom of casserole dish
Pour tin of crushed tomotoes into the casserole dish -mix garlic and onion through
Drop the meatballs in
Open jar of pasta sauce cover the meatballs

Put lid on and cook for 40 minutes in moderate oven
With 5 minutes to go remove lid and add grated cheese until lightly browned or melted

While meatballs are cooking -  boil water and cook up spaghetti

Serve in deep bowls with a fork and extra grated cheese on top.

A variations on this - I have  used a mushroom pasta sauce and added in extra mushrooms with the onion (cooked them up first) and served with rice instead of pasta - Its good too!

still cooking...

Zert - Beater Licking Good  Lemon Cheesecake Slice

Seriously this is so good my husband will bring my home flowers when he knows I have made this

won't you Richard??- actually even perfume or a new lip gloss would be good..

Anyhow -- so yummy and sooo simple- really you have to try it.

    packet of lemon cake mix
    3 eggs
    1/3 cup vegetable oil
    400gms cream cheese (2 and a bit blocks)
    1 tub sour cream 250 gms
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 lemon

Open packet mix and put aside one cup of it

Mix packet mix 1 egg and oil together - I just use a fork

Line a tin with alfoil and spread evenly across the bottom

Bake in moderate oven for 10 minutes

while that is cooking

In a mixer bowl place everything else mix until creamy and good

Pour over the top of your base

and cook for 35 minutes.

Leave cool - (actually now is the time to put the meatballs in!)

To serve dust with icing sugar and cut into slices. 

If you're being very flash - or you want the lip gloss perfume and flowers then serve with a fresh strawberry or two and some cream.

I don't have strawberries so the cream will have to do.

Enjoy
