Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds of russet potatoes, peeled and sliced very thin
1 medium size onion, peeled and cut in half, and sliced very thin
salt and pepper to taste (light on the pepper)
4 teaspoons of minced garlic
1 cup of grated cheese, divided
2/3 cup of sour cream, whipping cream, or milk (i use a combination of all three!)
1/4 cup parmesan grated fresh
pam spray

Steps:

  • 1. Cook's Tip: A word about cheese. I use jack cheese, fontina, gruyere cheese, cheddar, but I like fontina and jack cheese the best. For the milk mixture, I use a combination of sour cream, heavy cream and 2% milk, which is what I had on hand. You can use all milk, or all cream, or mix it up. Use what you like. Experiment to your hearts content. This is a fun recipe for that!
  • 2. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 10 inch glass pie dish with Pam.
  • 3. Scatter 2 teaspoons of garlic on bottom of Pam sprayed pie dish. Put half of the sliced potatoes on top of the garlic, overlapping the slices. Add half of the onion slices. Add salt and pepper (go easy on the pepper) Sprinkle 1/3 cup of cheese (your choice) over the onions evenly. Repeat the layer of garlic, potatoes, onions, and salt, pepper. Add the milk mixture evenly over the top, and then add the remaining 2/3 cup of cheese of choice, plus, the 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.
  • 4. Cover the pie with foil and bake 30 minutes, uncover and bake 30 minutes more. You may want to do a low broil to brown the top. Cut into wedges to serve. Enjoy!
  • 5. Cook's Note: I also have a Tater and Onion Pie with ham that is another variation of this recipe and it is posted.

ONE-POT PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND SPINACH



One-Pot Pasta With Sausage and Spinach image

This is the one-pot recipe to make when chopping an onion feels like too much work. Cooking the pasta in a combination of passata (puréed raw tomatoes) and water seasoned with cumin and red-pepper flakes infuses it with flavor all the way through. Cumin adds a subtle earthiness to the dish, but you can also use the same seasonings as those in the sausage you've chosen, like dried oregano, thyme, basil, paprika, fennel seeds or garlic. (Check the ingredients list on the package, if you're not sure.) Baby arugula, kale or other leafy greens could be substituted for the spinach, just make sure to tear or cut them into small, bite-size pieces. To make a vegetarian version, you could use mushrooms in place of the sausage at the start of the recipe, then continue with the rest.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 sweet or hot Italian sausages (5 to 6 ounces), casings removed
1 (24-ounce) jar passata or (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt
1 pound cavatappi, fusilli or other small, tubular pasta
5 packed cups baby spinach (about 5 ounces)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a 12-inch, deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid or a Dutch oven over medium-high until shimmering. Use your hands to pull the sausages apart into small pieces; add to the skillet and cook untouched for 1 minute.
  • Continue to cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, stirring at 1-minute intervals and breaking up the sausage into 1/2-inch chunks, until browned and crispy on the outside with no pink remaining. If you have more than 1 tablespoon of fat in the pan, drain the excess.
  • Carefully pour in the passata (it may splatter), then add the cumin, red-pepper flakes and 2 cups water, stirring to combine. Season with salt and increase the heat to bring to a boil.
  • Add the pasta, coating it with the liquid. (It won't be fully submerged, and that's OK.) Adjust the heat to maintain an active simmer with small bubbles forming on the surface. Cover and let cook, stirring every few minutes to make sure nothing is sticking at the bottom of the pan, until the pasta is al dente, about 1 minute less than the package instructions. If the pasta is still hard at this point, add a few tablespoons of warm water at a time and cook until just al dente. Depending on your pasta size and shape, you may need to add several tablespoons of water.
  • When the pasta is just al dente, reduce the heat to low and season to taste with salt. Stir in the spinach in batches, and cook, uncovered, until most of the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute more. (It will continue to wilt in the heat of the pasta after you serve it.) If the pasta seems too dry, add 1 tablespoon warm water at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Divide pasta among serving bowls and top with Parmesan.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta: Short pasta shapes like penne, rotini, or shells work best for this recipe, as they hold the sauce well.
  • Use flavorful red onions: Red onions have a slightly sweet and spicy flavor that pairs well with the spinach and cheese in this dish.
  • Cook the onions slowly: Cooking the onions slowly over low heat helps to caramelize them and bring out their sweetness.
  • Add the spinach at the end: Spinach cooks quickly, so add it to the pasta towards the end of the cooking time to prevent it from becoming overcooked.
  • Use a good quality cheese: Parmesan cheese is the classic choice for this dish, but you can also use other hard cheeses like Romano or Asiago.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the pasta before serving and add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes as needed.

Conclusion:

This Bonnie's Red Onion Pasta with Spinach is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The combination of caramelized red onions, spinach, and cheese makes for a delicious and satisfying dish. Serve it with a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
