It's Getting Cooler Outside...Two More Recipes

I can't believe it's the middle of September already. The weather was cool and drizzly today here. Over the next few weeks, it will begin to get even cooler. I love all seasons for the variety, but I like fall for the "sweatshirt weather".

I got home from work this evening wanting something warm and tasty for supper. I wanted something that would fill me up and then be able to curl up on the couch afterwards and relax for the rest of the evening.

I don't remember where I found the recipes, but they were delicious and simple.

"Grandma Ketcham's Macaroni Casserole"

Ingredients:
8 ounces elbow macaroni
1 pint sour cream
2 (14 ounce) cans tomatoes, with liquid
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup bread crumbs

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the macaroni until nearly tender. Drain the macaroni well and place it in a 2 quart buttered casserole dish. Mix in the sour cream, tomatoes, salt and pepper.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and stir in the bread crumbs, combining well. Sprinkle the buttered crumbs over the macaroni mixture and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.



"Beans and Weenies"

Ingredients:
1 pound hot dogs, sliced
3 (16 ounces each) cans pork and beans
1/2 cup catsup
1/4 cup molasses
2 teaspoon mustard

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker; stir well. Cover and cook on low setting for 3-4 hours.
