Pasta Bake

Ingredients:
• 2 cups uncooked Penne Pasta
• ½ lb. Italian sausage meat
• ½ lb. lean ground beef
• 1 tbsp. oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• ½ cup diced onion
• 1-600ml Classico Sweet Basil Marinara Sauce
• 14.5 ounce canned diced tomatoes, with juices
• ¼ cup tomato paste
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese
• 2/3 cup grated Parmesan Cheese, divided

Directions:

 Preheat oven to 350 F and prepare a 9X13 baking dish with non-stick spray.
 In a large skillet, thoroughly cook beef and Italian sausage on medium heat. Drain excess grease, transfer meat to a large bowl and set aside.
 Wipe excess grease from skillet. Add oil and garlic. Simmer for 5 min. Sauté bell peppers and onions
until tender crisp. Add cooked meat back to pan. Set aside.
 Cook penne pasta to al dente and according to package. Be sure to undercook pasta. It should be very al dente with a firm bite before baking. This will prevent the pasta from becoming mushy in the oven. Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.
 Stir Marinara Sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, reserved pasta water and 1/3 cup grated Parmesan Cheese to meat mixture. Fold in cooked pasta.
 Transfer the mixture to a prepared dish, top with cheeses and garnish with dried parsley. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until hot and the cheese is browned and bubbly.
 Remove from oven and allow to rest about 10 minutes before serving.
 Serve with a green salad and garlic bread.

On Thursday, September 05, Demo Service featured a heartwarming Beef Stew. Below is the recipe.

Slow Cooker Beef Stew
Ingredients:
• 2 lbs. Fresh Canadian Top Sirloin Roast, cut into cubes
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tbsp. butter
• 1 tbsp. Grapeseed Oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 ½ cups beef broth
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 stalk celery, chopped
• 4 medium carrots, diced
• 3 medium potatoes, diced
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• ½ tsp. thyme
• ¼ cup Veloutine Instant Gravy Thickener
• 1 cup frozen green peas

Directions:

 Season chopped beef with salt and pepper.
 Melt butter in a saucepan and over low heat. Add Grapeseed oil and thinly sliced garlic and cook until fragrant, usually about 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently. (I like to remove garlic at this point)
 Increase pan heat to high. Place beef nuggets in the pan with garlic oil/ butter in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
 In your slow cooker, add all but 2 tbsp. beef broth and set to high. Once seared, add beef.
 Deglaze pan with reserved beef broth (or red cooking wine). Add onions, and celery. Cook for about 5 minutes. Add to slow cooker, along with carrots and turnip, Worcestershire sauce and thyme.
 Slow-cook for about 1 hour on high. Add diced potatoes and continue to cook until vegetables are tender crisp.
 Slowly sprinkle Veloutine Instant Gravy Thickener in stew, gently moving stew around to distribute evenly and dissolve. Continue to cook until thickened. Add more thickener if desired.
 Add frozen green peas and allow to heat through until peas are heated through.
