Ramen Skillet Supper, Sausage Patties and Marinara Sauce and Giveaway




Gooseberry Patch has done it again!
They have a new cookbook that has recently hit the shelves 
and yep....it's another winner!
Of course, we wouldn't expect anything less from them, would we?
is another cookbook in Gooseberry Patch 101 Series.
Full color cookbooks ....full of tried and true recipes...
that contain ingredients that are most always in your pantry!

Take a look at the Table of Contents with a few samples of recipes....

Quick & Easy -   Chicken Romano,
So- Easy Pork Fritters, Basil and Tomato Soup, Spicy Sausage & Rice

Slowly Simmered - Skillet Bowtie Lasagna, Anita's Onion Steaks,
Fluffy Chicken & Dumplins, Chicken Cranberry Ruby
Serves a Crowd - Bowties, Sausage and Beans, Ham and Potato Skillet Supper
Curried Chicken w/Mango, Creamed Chicken on Biscuits

Now, don't these recipes sound delicious?
Well, trust me....
There are plenty more recipes to chose from that are just as simple and delicious!
Guess what? 
I have a copy of this cookbook to giveaway to one of you lucky winners!
But.....if you'd like to purchase 
101 Stovetop Suppers now, you can!






Ramen Skillet Supper

1 lb ground beef
2 1/2 cups water
2 3oz beef flavored ramen noodles 
with seasoning packet
1/2 cup stir-fry sauce
3 cups frozen stir-fry vegetables

Brown beef in a large skillet over medium heat; drain.
Add water, one soup seasoning packet, sauce and vegetables.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low;
cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes,
or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Break up noodles; add to skillet.
Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 - 8 minutes,
until sauce is thickened and noodles are tender.
Serves 4


Oh, this coobkook is going to be one of my most 'turn to' cookbooks I own.
There are so many quick and easy recipes to chose from.

I have found many recipes for Spaghetti Sauce or Marinara Sauce.....
but something about this one just stood out.
I knew I had to try it.

Now...I know that by looking at this photo you're thinking,
"this just looks like any other sauce"
and yes, you're right, it does.
(the quality pic from my camera doesn't help either!)
But the combination of spices in this sauce over the Italian Sausage Patty....
well...to be honest...I do believe I just found my new favorite recipe!



3 T olive oil
3/4 cup onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
14 1/2 oz can tomato sauce
12 oz can tomato paste
2 cup water
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 bay leaf
3 T grated Roman cheese
1 lb ground hot Italian pork sausage formed in to 8 patties
16 oz pkg spaghetti pasta, cooked

Garnish: grate Parmesan cheese
I also added Italian bread crumbs...

Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium heat.
Saute onion and garlic until tender.
Stir in tomatoes with juice, tomato sauce, tomato paste, water, sugar and seasonings.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes.
Discard bay leaf; stir in Romano cheese.
Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
Brown sausage patties in a skillet on both sides until no longer pink in the middle, about 10 minutes.
Divide pasta among bowls/plates; top with sausage patty and sauce.
Garnish with cheese (and bread crumbs)
Serves 8

  105. Gooseberry Patch cookbooks are by far my favorite types of cookbooks. You don't have to go to a gourmet store for special ingredients to be able to make a meal! I usually have everything right on hand. My Gooseberry Patch cookbooks NEVER get lent out to people! I will make you a copy of a recipe you are interested in, or I may even buy you your own copy for your birthday, Christmas or Mother's day, but put my copy back when you're done. I have almost every Gooseberry book ever published, but I do not have this one...YET! It would be great to win it!
