Ok so this is not really green, or maybe it is. I have 1 son who LOVES and I mean LOVES spaghettios, and my daughter well she just has better taste than him! The sad part is when I was pregnant with Jamie, I craved spaghettios and I dashed out to the store to buy a can popped it open and gag it tasted like pennies, or a tin can. BLAH.
So I needed an easy fix to get rid of the craving while not gagging. So I tried a few recipes to make homemade spaghettios. Epic Fail! So here I sat...all sick feeling due to being in my first trimester, and starving all at the same time. So my green-ness stepped up and I played around with the base recipe and found not only a preggo woman approved version, but a kid friendly version. And by far cheaper and healthier to boot!
So here it is.... Kelly's ring around the spaghettios
1 can organic condensed tomato soup ( or jarred sauce not hte seasoned kind)
1/2 a can milk Organic of course- and I like skim
1 tsp organic garlic powder
1 tsp organic onion powder
1c shredded mild cheddar cheese
1/3 of the 1 lb box ring noodles cooked in SALTED water.
1. Mix the soup, milk and garlic and onion powder in a pot.
2. Once bubbling add the cheddar cheese and mix until melted.
3. Add cooked noodles, mix and serve.
** I have also tripled the recipe and frozen the extras, and they thaw out beautifully.
So the green factor is you can have a 100% organic kid friendly meal that literally costs less about 50 cents a serving.
So up next is going to be my hand at making homemade handsoap. Wish me luck!
