Tonight's Dinner

We made spaghetti tonight. It was the first time in a long time we made pasta. Every time we make it we wonder why we don't to it more often. It's quick and easy and so much better than pasta from a box!

Here is the meat. Jared used ground beef, bacon, spicy italian sausage, and jalapeno cheddar sausage.

Here are the veggies. Jared used mushrooms, and onions.

Here is the sauce simmering away.

Here is the hanging pasta. So good!

Dinner and drinks are served!

Can you tell me how you make your scup from scratch? I have the equipment to do it, but never have.

For one batch (would serve 4 hungry people, we always have a LOT of leftovers) I do the following:

Put 2.25 cups semolina flour into your bread maker. Add 3 eggs, 1/4 cup water, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Kneed on high for 22 minutes. You will have to scootch everything down with a spatula to make sure it all gets into a ball. Then wrap the ball in saran wrap, and keep in the fridge for a few hours.

You may need to adjust the oil and water to get the right consistency.

You only need to boil it for about 4 minutes after cutting it up and hanging it.
