SPAGHETTI FOR 100 OR OAMC



Spaghetti for 100 or Oamc image

A hearty meat sauce makes this spaghetti a crowd pleaser. Even though this recipe serves 100 people, it is very easy to make. This needs to simmer for 2 or 3 hours, so make it well in advance. You can even make the sauce the day before--on the day of your event, just boil the noodles and reheat the sauce. This is also great for OAMC-allow sauce to cool, divide into containers and freeze.

#10 CAN SPAGHETTI SAUCE - OAMC



#10 Can Spaghetti Sauce - OAMC image

I really did make up this recipe on my own, with the help of an Italian lady through emails. The mingling of the oil/spices is the key. We were really into Once a Month Cooking for awhile and this sauce is/was a hit.

Provided by Angel91805

Categories     Sauces

Time 8h30m

Yield 5 quarts, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large white onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced bottled garlic
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 bay leaves
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Brown sausage in pan, crumbling with spatula, until no pink remains. Drain and rinse. Put into a 5 quart crockpot.
  • Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until translucent and golden but not brown. Add all the spices and mix well. Turn off the heat and let the spices mingle for about 10 minutes. The heat will let the oils release from the dried herbs.

  • If freezing, cool sauce and pour into quart sized freezer bags. Remove all the air and place flat on a cookie sheet and put into freezer. When frozen, they will stand up like records in the freezer.

Spaghetti and Venison Meatballs (Oamc) image

Freezer full of deer meat and had to come up with something new. So my daughter and I came up with this for dinner. This could be a Oamc meal just cool meatballs and freeze, freeze sauce and when the time comes place thawed into stock pot and let simmer 30 minutes. Even easier for the cooking day would be to place the frozen meatballs in bottom of crock pot and broken up frozen sauce on top of meatballs turn on low all day.

Easy Pizza Pasta Casserole (OAMC) image

Provided by Kaarin

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h5m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs ground beef or 2 lbs ground venison
1 large onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 (26 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
16 ounces rotini pasta, cooked and drained
5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (20 oz)
8 ounces sliced pepperoni

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, onion, garlic and seasoning in oil.
  • Drain.
  • While beef is browning, cook pasta according to the packaging
  • Stir in pasta, spaghetti sauce and 3 cups cheese.
  • Place mixture in 2 greased 9x13x2 inch baking pans or 4 square pans.
  • Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella.
  • Top with pepperoni.
  • Cover and freeze up to 3 months.
  • To cook now: Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until heated through.
  • To bake frozen casserole: Thaw in refrigerator overnight and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes, till hot.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Pasta: The type of pasta you use can make a big difference in the final dish. For this recipe, spaghetti is a good choice because it holds the sauce well and is easy to eat.
  • Cook the Pasta Properly: Be sure to cook the pasta according to the package directions. Al dente pasta is the best, as it will have a slight bite to it and will hold the sauce better.
  • Make a flavorful sauce: The sauce is the star of the show, so make sure you take the time to make a flavorful one. Use fresh ingredients and plenty of herbs and spices.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When you're cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick together.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce, not the other way around: When you're combining the pasta and sauce, add the pasta to the sauce, not the other way around. This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together and will also help the sauce to coat the pasta evenly.
  • Serve immediately: Pasta is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will ensure that the pasta is hot and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This spaghetti recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a crowd. The simple ingredients and straightforward instructions make it a great choice for busy weeknights. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table in no time.
