Turn on th stove


Add the onions and garlic into a pot and stir


When the garlic is light brown, add the pork links, but make sure the pork links are cut up


When the pork links are looking good, add pasta sauce


While it is cooking get another pot, fill it with water and cook up the pasta


When everything is done and looking good, put the pasta into some bowls and just pour the sauce over it. Maybe add some black pepper or parmesan cheese. Enjoy! :)
Try a search for casseroles or budget cooking on the web....those recipes should be pretty basic so your brother should like them and casseroles are pretty easy.





Chicken Alfredo





2 boneless skinless chicken breasts


1 jar of Alfredo sauce


Spaghetti noodles





This is a pretty quick recipe so start boiling the noodles first.


Cut chicken into bite size pieces. Cook in olive oil or margarine/butter until done. Add Alfredo sauce and heat thoroughly. When noodles are done, drain them and serve alfredo sauce on top.


**If you want you can add some fresh garlic, salt, or parmesan cheese to boost the flavor a bit.








Pizza casserole:


1 lb ground meat


1 (15oz) jar of pizza sauce


1 (12 oz) bag of egg noddles


1 (8oz) bag of mozzarella cheese





Brown the meat and drain. Boil the noodles, drain well. Put the meat and noodles in a large mixing bowl (or back in the pan you boiled the noodles in to save on dishes) and add pizza sauce and 1/2 bag of cheese. Mix well and pour into a greased 9x13 ( I use Pam spray) Top with the rest of the cheese and bake it in a 350* oven for 20- 25 minutes. Serve





Poor Mans Stroganoff (this isn't really a casserole but it is cheap and good)





1 lb or so ground meat


8 oz container of sour cream


1 can cream of mushroom condensed soup (we use cream of chicken cause we don't like mushrooms)





Brown the meat and drain off grease. Add sour cream and condensed soup (no milk) heat thoroughly and serve over cooked noodles or rice.





Tator Tot casserole





1 lb ground beef


1 can green beans ( we use corn)


1 can cream of chicken OR cream of mushroom


1 can water or milk (we use milk)


Tator-tots to cover the top of dish


shredded cheddar cheese (optional)





Brown the beef, drain and put into the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan. Combine green beans or corn, cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup, and the water or milk in a medium bowl. Pour the mixture over the beef. Put Tator-tots on top to completely cover the mixture.





Bake in a 350掳F oven for 25-30 minutes, or until Tator-tots are lightly browned and crisp. Sprinkle shredded cheese if desired over the top and bake for 5 more minutes.
