DH is having a rough day at work. ?I wanna make a nice dinner, nothing crazy. ?Any simple recipes using chicken breasts (bone in) or ground beast?! ?LOL

I'm making a homemade spaghette meat sauce using ground beef.  If you want the recipe let me know, it's simple.

For bone-in chicken breasts the only thing I can think of is baked chicken!

We had spaghetti last week. ?But I would love your recipe. ?I think I am going to do baked chicken with mashed potatoes, gravy and peas

mmmm I live for mashed potatoes!

Well here is how I make my spaghetti:

Ingredients:

1 lb. ground beef

4 small cans Hunts tomato sauce (2 roasted garlic, 2 Basil & Oregano)

2 small cans tomato paste

1 pkg. frozen Seasoning Blend (onions, peppers, celery)

1 tbsp. minced garlic

1-2 small cans mushroom pieces and stems

1 can Rotel original

Seasonings to taste (Salt, Pepper, Tony Chachere?s, garlic powder, onion powder)

2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce

? can/bottle of beer (any kind will do)

1 tbsp McCormick?s Italian Seasonings

1 tsp sugar

1-2 Bay leaves ?optional

Method:

Brown ground beef, seasoning while browning with salt, pepper, Tony?s, etc.).  When browned, add minced garlic and frozen seasoning blend.  Cook down until veggies are soft.  Add can(s) of mushrooms, including liquid, stir well.  Add Rotel and stir well.  Add cans of tomato paste and mix evenly.  Add the rest of the ingredients (tomato sauce, worcestershire, beer, Italian seasoning, sugar, and bay leaves) and let cook on medium-low heat 20 minutes.  Taste seasonings and adjust as needed.  Let simmer about 30 more minutes, though the longer it cooks the better it will be!  Stir often to keep from sticking to bottom of pot.

Serve over your favorite kind of pasta (I like linguine).
