Lasagna (or Manicotti, stuffed shells, etc)

Ingredients:

lasagna noodles

spaghetti sauce

hamburger (optional)

2 eggs

mozzarella cheese shredded

2-3 8oz cream cheese bricks softened

I prefer the no bake lasagna noodles so there is less to do, but you can use the regular noodles if you would like. Let cream cheese soften during the day. Preheat oven to 375. Brown hamburger. While hamburger is browning warm up spaghetti sauce. In a small mixing bowl combine softened cream cheese and eggs. Mix well. After hamburger browns, drain and add to spaghetti sauce. Begin layering your lasagna. I do noodles, spaghetti sauce/hamburger mixture and cream cheese mixture. Bake covered for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake uncovered until cheese is melted. Enjoy!

The only difference between the lasagna and the manicotti or stuffed shells is I add mozzarella cheese to the cream cheese mixture for the manicotti and stuffed shells. I add approximately 2 cups of mozzarella cheese. The manicotti and stuffed shells are great for freezer meals. I cook the noodles and stuff them with the cream cheese mixture and then put them in a freezer bag. When I am using them for dinner I bake it at 350 for about 30-45 minutes.

Another one of my favorite meals:

Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients:

boneless, skinless chicken breasts

mild cheddar cheese block, sliced into 1/4"-1/2" thick

2 eggs beaten

flour

bread crumbs

olive oil

Preheat oven to 400. Put some olive oil in a pan and let it heat up. Slice a small slit in the side of the chicken. Place a slice or two of cheese inside chicken. Put chicken in egg and cover it with egg. Next coat the chicken with flour. Put chicken back into egg mixture. Next coat it with the bread crumbs. Place in heated pan. After a minute or two turn chicken over. After another minute or two place chicken to baking dish. Repeat process for all your chicken breast pieces. Bake for 20-30 minutes in oven.

A side dish I like to make with it sometimes:

Shrimp and Asparagus Pasta

Ingredients:

Shrimp

Asparagus

Pasta of your choice

Alfredo sauce

Cook pasta of your choice according to the directions. Meanwhile cook shrimp and asparagus to your liking. Warm up alfredo sauce (or make your own). Add all ingredients in a bowl and stir. It's actually quite yummy!
