Jamie's "Use Up the Ingredients" Ziti & Super Creative Italian Bread

Scott's on his way home from the interview in Boston and I'm picking him up in about 2 hours from the airport. I was a good girl and ran this morning before work, and had fun making dinner for 1 and reading Moloka'i (LOVE it so far!)

So, for fun, here's what I made for dinner, which I ate in the living room while watching reruns of The Office. How I love being a grown up sometimes!

Jamie's "Use Up the Ingredients" Ziti
Noodles, cooked
Sauce
1/2 of an onion, diced up as small as possible
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
Cheese (cottage, ricotta, mozzarella, parm...whatever ya got)
1/2 lb of meat (either ground turkey or beef, you get the picture right?)

Directions:
Boil the noodles. Mix up the rest of the stuff in a casserole dish you think will fit all the stuff. Then mix in the noodles. Then put cheese on top and bake if for a 1/2 hour or so, until it looks delicious. :)

Tonight I used 1/2 onion, 2 cloves garlic, 1/2 lb grilled chicken breasts ground up, whole wheat penne and mozzarella. I love when I have leftover cottage cheese or ricotta, bc that makes it even more yummy. I've been known to throw in some spinach too... but no such luck tonight.

Jamie's "Super Creative" Italian Bread
1 thing of Pillsbury Italian loaf
Olive oil
Italian spices
Parm cheese

Directions:
Get bread dough prepared according to the directions on packet. In a small bowl, mix up some olive oil and spices. W/ a brush, brush it all over the loaf and bake at 350 for 25 min until golden brown and wonderful. :)
