HELLO~HELLO~HELLO
YES....I am still here~just really busy.
We are finally in full swing harvest.
At the time we are combining Spring Wheat.
So far, so good.
Today I picked a whole bunch of
tomatoes. Hopefully, I will have the
time to can pasta sauce and salsa.
The lunches have been packed
and are already in the field.
I prepared Baked Spaghetti to
serve for supper tonight.
Right now, I have
Harvest Bundt Cake
baking in the oven and
it smells really yummy.
Love the smells of fall
baking....pumpkin, cinnamon,
ginger and nutmeg! :)
BAKED SPAGHETTI
16 oz. package spaghetti, cookied
2-24 oz. jars spaghetti sauce
2 pounds extra lean ground beef, browned
1 small onion, diced and browned with beef
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon minced garlic (i use garlic press)
12 oz evaporated milk
2 cups lowfat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup mozzarella, shredded
-------
Combine spaghetti sauce and cooked beef. Set aside.
In a saucepan, over medium heat, melt butter, add
flour, parmesan cheese and garlic. Stir until smooth and bubbly.
Add milk and cheddar cheese-stir until melted.
Add half of the spaghetti and sauce mixture

cheese mixture layer.
Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese
on top of spaghetti.

Cover with tinfoil for 20 minutes and then
undercover for the last 10 minutes.
Check often...don't let it get dry!
(sorry I don't have a picture of
the spaghetti after it's baked
because I have not baked it yet
and I wanted to get this posted!)
Enjoy!!
Here is a picture of

Harvest Bundt Cake.

We were lazy this morning and then attended a fall festival parade around noon. After that we headed to the festival to walk around and support our local community by eating their wonderful food and playing a few games. Now we are home and trying to get some things accomplished outside. (you can tell I am getting alot done!)
ReplyDeleteI haven't made bake spaghetti in a long time. I am adding it to the menu for next week. Have fun harvesting!
Dinner looks wonderful. Can just taste the cake.
ReplyDeleteNot much going on around here, cleaned house and washed car. Now heading out for some Mexican food.
Happy farming and be safe!
Sounds like a wonderful day to me!
ReplyDeleteI'm cleaning house, and baking a pumpkin pie. :)
Welcome Fall!! :)
If you read your farm hands that well, I am on my way!
ReplyDeleteYour recipes are the best. I think we will have the spaghetti for dinner next week--yum!! thanks--julie
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call dinner and dessert! Yummy! Thanks for sharing another great recipe with us.
ReplyDeleteToday I met my best friend, Roxanne, at Hunt Valley. She's just getting out and about after having knee replacement surgery. She couldn't walk much because she's still taking therapy, but we had a blast visiting each other. We sat outside to talk and then ate at the California Grill. I had the Jambalaya again. It is so good! Brought the rest home and will have it for lunch tomorrow.
She and I spent 5 hours just talking and people watching. I was sorry for it to end, but we were both a little tired. :) She drove back to PA and I stayed to do a little shopping at Wegman's. After that I nodded off on the lightrail back home, but made it safely. What a good day I had.
Hope you get some rest after being in the fields all day. xxoo

Looks really good. We love spaghetti here at our house. I am curious to know what kind of spaghetti sauce you use. We don't really care for any bottle kind, yet they've quit making the mix we used to use. I'm willing to try anything. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteYou know....I have recently gained weight and have been trying to figure out why?!?! OH IT'S YOU!! Just kidding, I mean not about the weight part but the "it's your fault part"!! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteDon't let City Girl Turned Country Girl fool you . . . I've seen her in person and she can use a few pounds! She's just gonna have to be content and look like the rest of us!
ReplyDeleteYou have certainly been busy! I think you can run circles around me!
