im hungry. (the beautiful struggle)

Good Lawd Im hungry!

Yea, over the past few months in my apartment-style university housing, I have been experimenting and growing as a cook, but lately, I have been busy and lacking in the groceries/shekels department and have quite literally STARVED! Today was bad! (Well no days are bad that the Lord blesses me with)I really didnt feel like doing any hefty cooking and had nothing instant to make, so i slept to forget the pain in my stomach (dang that sounds bad)! But, lo and behold, I got up outta the bed and made some "sundi-style-spaghetti a la creole"!! :-)

and here is the recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 package of spaghetti noodles
• salt
• olive oil
• some ground beef
• 1 can of tomato soup (not tomato sauce)
• some onion, green that is
• some of those small light green spicy peppers with seeds (cant think of the real name of em)
• shredded cheese
• parsley & pepper
• garlic salt

Process:

Noodles: U should know how to cook noodles, come on now! But if you dont, this is what i do. Bring water to a medium boil, add a little olive oil and salt. Then add the noodles, and stir so as not to allow any "stickage" to the bottom. Boil noodles til theyre a lil puffy and no longer yellow. Then drain noodles and "wash" them with water to get rid of remaining starchiness on em.

Ground Beef: Put allotted amount onto flat pan and brown it til its done

Sauce: Bring tomato soup to an almost boil, then add chopped green onions, tons of small green spicy peppers (that u cut in half but didnt seed), and garlic salt. Stir til u feel its all jumbled up and good. You'll be able to smell it baby...then add the browned ground beef and continue to stir that til its all mixed up and good.

Mix your sauce with the noodles or leave separate so that company can put as much as they want on it...not everyone can handle the spicy sauce. I like to pour the spicy juice from the pepper bottle on my plate of "creole spaghetti " to add some real spice!!! Do it! **Also, a teeny little dab of sugar in the sauce, when portioned correctly, can create this fusion of sugary-spicyness on the tongue that can be subtly beautiful.



G-d helps those who help themselves!
