Two Yummy Recipes

Lamb Shepherd's Pie

Pasta with Sausage and Greens

Wait, do I have to post the recipes? I dont really cook that way.

Lamb Shepherd's Pie

First make delicious mashed tatos.

Next dredge lamb stew meat in seasoned flour and then brown it. Eat a few chunks since they are delish. Deglaze pan with red wine.

Next saute any decent stuff you want in the pie. I used turnips, carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Add lamb and deglazed pan drippings. Sprinkle some of the seasoned flour over the veggies when they are done and add more vino tinto so you create a thickened mixture.

Put the thickened mixture on the bottom of a pie pan, cover with mashed pertaters, sprinkle with garlic salt and top with some kind of cheese.

Bake til bubbly. I served with baked delicata squash but a salad would be nice too.

Pasta with Sausage and Greens

Brown Sausage and boil you up some noodles, preferably penne ( not penis).

Combine sausage and noodles in a baking dish. Add a butt ton of pesto. I guess in layman's terms that would be 1/3 to 1/2 cup. Add two cans of mostly but not all the way drained diced tomatoes. Add several large handfuls of a leafy green. I first had it with spinach but I used beet greens next time ( and J never even knew!). I blanched the greens in the micro first. Stir it up little darlin. Cover and bake for awhile. Top with parmesean cheese ( not shaky cheese Sarah), uncover and take out when the cheese is lightly browned. Ummm yummy ( even better than the greek honey baked beans!)

  1. I don't use shaky cheese anymore!!

    The lamb shepherds pie sounds delish! The sausage and greens sounds strange but good.
