Spagetti Squash of Deliciousness

Ingredients:

2 fresh, whole, heads of garlic
2 spaghetti squash
olive oil
italian seasoning

Place the garlic heads on some aluminum foil and pour a little olive oil on them. Wrap them up and roast them until soft (25-40 min).

While the garlic is roasting: cut the spaghetti squashes down the middle, scrape out the seeds, and roast them on baking sheets in the oven. 375 for about an hour.

Squeeze the garlic out of the skin. Mix with olive oil to make a paste/spread. Spread it on the squash, and sprinkle with italian seasoning.

Marvel at how something so healthy could substitute a filling pasta dish.

Quick, Cheap, Easy, Kid-Pleasing Stroganoff

Um, what the title says.

Ingredients:

~ 1.5 lbs ground beef
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
tbsp of onion powder
tbsp of garlic powder
1 box of pasta (I used bow-tie. Use egg noodles for more authenticity)
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
splash of rice vinegar

While pasta is boiling: in a bowl, mix beef and seasonings. Brown the beef. Drain the pasta. Add the beef and two cans of mushroom soup. Heat until hot. At the end of cooking, add a splash of rice vinegar. DONE.
