egg noodles
Recently, I wanted to fix some Stroganoff for supper. (It's a long story. But, whenever I hear a mention of food poisoning, I get hungry for Stroganoff. Sometimes, negative reinforcement doesn't work.) I had most of the ingredients, and the rest I could substitute for. But, I didn't have any egg noodles.
I remember that my grandmother used to make egg noodles and dry them over the backs of chairs. So, I decided to try.
Here's a basic recipe:
1 egg, beaten
1 c flour (plus more for kneading and to roll out the noodles)
1 c milk
1 T olive oil (or other cooking oil)
1/4 t salt
Mix all together. Knead on floured surface. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Roll thin.
Cut into strips with pizza cutter.
As the noodles dry, roll individual noodles again to get them thinner.
When dry, cook in boiling water to desired doneness.
(Unused noodles can be frozen.)

Enchiladas
Two staples for our Super Bowl dinner are a savory cheese rice (aka Weidman rice) and enchiladas. I've already posted a recipe for the rice. Here's a recipe for enchiladas that turned out surprisingly well. (makes 6)
Dice 1/2 onion. Fry in cooking oil until slightly browned.
Add 1/2 pound hamburger (or other meat -- diced or shredded). Cook till brown. Drain off fat.
Add
1/2 t garlic salt
1/4 t pepper
1/4 t Weber brand seasoning salt
1 c salsa
1/2 c refried beans
Lay out 6 tortillas. Divide the mixture among them.
Top each with a handful of shredded Cheddar cheese.
Roll up the tortillas and place them seam side up in 11 x 8" greased baking dish.
Pour about 1/2 c salsa over the filled tortillas.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 min.
Top with shredded Cheddar cheese. Bake another 10 min.
Serve.

Oven-cooked pork and potatoes
This is an example of why my recipes never turn out the same.... But, it did turn out pretty well and was a nice way to use leftover pork chops.
I saw an interesting recipe for cooking beef tips and potatoes in the oven. It turned out, after I started, that the only ingredients I had at home were the potatoes, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Here's the recipe:
Peel and cut up potatoes and place in pan. (-- used a 9" x 6" pan.)
Cut leftover pork chops into cubes and add to pan.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Add salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. (Recipe called for thyme instead of Italian seasoning.)
Add water and cran-____ juice (Ocean Spray) to cover. (Recipe called for wine.)
Place in refrigerator.
An hour or so before supper, place in 350F oven and bake for at least an hour.
