Ravioli Casserole

What you need:
I pkg frozen ravioli (I use cheese ravioli, pick your favorite flavors.)
3 jars sun dried tomato Alfredo pasta sauce (Kroger carries this flavor but feel free to substitute another favorite.)
1 1/2-2 pounds ground beef, browned and seasoned generously with Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, sslt snd black pepper
(Optional: 2 tablespoonsof finely chopped sun dried tomatoes can be added to the beef as it cooks.)
2 packages Italian blend cheese

Large casserole dish
Frying pan
4-quart pot of boiling salted water

Brown ground beef, adding seasonings and sun-dried tomatoes or other add-ins as it cooks. Drain or blot out all rendered fat.

Boil frozen ravioli in salted water for about 3 minutes .

Layer sauce, then ravioli, then seasoned meat, and then cheese. You’ll have 2+ layers of everything. Save 1/3 of your cheese for the final topping .

Cook for 1 hour at 325. Add remaining cheese and continue baking just until the cheese is melted. Allow the casserole to sit for 5 minutes before serving .

Yeast Rolls

What you need:
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup sugar
1 package instant dry yeast
3 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg

Stand mixer with dough hook
Large baking sheet
Cooking spray or butter to grease pan
Butter to coat finished rolls

The oven with just its light turned on provides the perfect place for your rolls to rise! As soon before you begin as possible, turn on your oven light and adjust your oven racks if necessary to accommodate your mixer’s mixing bowl.

Combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast in your mixer’s bowl. Allow to sit for 10 minutes for the yeast to “bloom.”

Combine 1 cup of your flour and the salt and add. Mix for 2 minutes.

Combine the oil and egg and add. Mix for 2 minutes.

Slowly add the remaining 2 1/4 cups of flour and mix well.

Remove the bowl of dough from your mixer. Cover it with a dish cloth and allow it to rise (in the oven with the light on, or in another warm area, until doubled—about 45 minutes .

Scoop the dough onto a floured countertop and knead and turn it until it’s smooth. It may be just a little sticky and thats ok. If it sticks to your hands too muchh, add tiny sprinkles of flour until it’s manageable.

Divide your dough (use a blunt knife or dough cutter) until you end up with 16 rolls. Roll the individual rolls between your palms or between your cupped hand and the countertop until smooth, and place on a greased baking sheet. Flatten them just a little, remembering they will rise and spread.

Cover with a cloth and allow to rise (in oven with light on, or in another warm spot) for one hour. Remove before you preheat
the oven.

Preheat your oven to 350 now, and bake the rolls for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned . Remove from oven and brush generously with melted butter.

If you like your rolls to be tall, place them close together on the pan.

This recipe doubles very easily, and will still fit in a stand mixer’s bowl.

Chex Mix

Ok, this is NOT my recipe but here it is in case you’d like to make it. The recipe is also on the back of the Chex cereals featured in the recipe.

Yeah, you have to buy 3 boxes of cereal. Go ahead and plan to make about 2 1/2 recipes based on the amount of cereal you’re buying.

Do not attempt a double recipe. One recipe is a lot to manage stirring .

Buy the stick pretzels and break them in half. Otherwise theyre pretty big compared to the other items in the mix.

I generally ignore the bagel chips in the recipe because they’re hard to find. I occasionally find the Ghiardettos rye chips in stock at Walmart at mid-week and they’re yummy but still optional.

Sweet Potato Casserole

Beat together the following with a mixer:
Approx 5 medium sweet potatoes, baked, cooled & peeled (6 cups or so)
1 stick butter, melted
2 eggs
1/2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pour into a greased baking dish.

Top with a crumble made of the following:
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted butter

Bake at 350 for approximately 30 minutes

I bake my sweet potatoes the night before and let them cool on the counter, then slip off the peelngs the next morning to prep the casserole.

You can substitute mini-marshmallows for the crumble topping. If you do, bake the casserole for 20 minutes first, then add the marshmallows and bake 10 more minutes. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
