Kathy Clark is SW Kansas asked
Does anyone have any good ideas for using little smokies besides putting
them in bar-b-que sauce?
When our grandchildren were small and would eat a meal with us, they
always wanted mac and cheese.
One day Grandpa (my husband Jim) decided it was time for a change and
cooked this one up for them. They never asked for mac and cheese again and
still today, with the oldest grandchild, 20 and the youngest 13, they
still ask for "Grandpa's pasta". We don't measure anything, just put in as
much as you like, to your taste,
and depending on the amount of pasta you use. Also, this one keeps well
for a couple days in the fridge. . . in fact, it is better the next day
since the smoky flavor of the smoked porkies is more evident.
Grandpa's Pasta
Slowly sauté onions, green or red peppers, celery (all diced).
Add smoked porkies (cocktail wieners).
Add diced tomatoes and/or spaghetti sauce.
Let simmer on low for 15-20 minutes.
Optional: Italian seasoning to taste
Cook Pasta in salted water until al dente; drain.
(Pasta Nuggets or Bowtie is very good for the pasta.)
Add the onion mixture.
Optional: Sprinkle top with grated cheese (mozzarella, Italian blend,
etc.) when serving.
Hope you enjoy this one as much as our grandkids do. . .and we love it
also.
Nancy, thanks for all your hard work putting your Newsletter together.
It's a highlight of my day. I've saved hundreds of the recipes and hope I
live long enough to try at least 50% of them (^_^).
And Tona in Bama, I don't bypass ANY of your recipes. I'm still waiting
for that cookbook!! Also, enjoyed your Bio and the picture of your lovely
family. It's so nice to put a face to the name of e-mail friends.
