I need recipe for tonight! Please Help me!?

Question

Do you have any good ideas for a cheap, yummy, healthy dinner that I can make tonight? I would also like to know how to make chicken spaghetti!

Answer 1

Creamy Fettuccini Alfredo

1 – 8 oz. Package Philly Cream Cheese (I use the light version – 1/3 less fat), cubed

¾ cup (3 oz.) fresh grated Parmesan cheese (I like De Giorno, don’t use Kraft)

½ cup margarine (I use I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter Light)

½ cup milk or half and half (I use 1% or 2% low fat)

8 oz. fettuccini, cooked, drained (I use the fresh Contadina low fat one)



In large saucepan, combine cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, margarine and milk.

Stir over low heat until smooth. Add to drained fettuccini and toss lightly. Sprinkle with fresh Parmesan cheese if desired. Makes 4 servings.

Serving Suggestions:

  I serve this with chicken Parmesan, salad, and garlic bread.

Quick Chicken Parmesan

4 Boneless Chicken b*****s, pounded flat

1 jar Spaghetti Sauce (I use Prego mushroom and garlic)

3 oz. Mozzarella Cheese, grated

2 cups Italian Bread Crumbs

2 oz. Parmesan Cheese

1/2 tsp garlic salt

1 egg, plus 1 tbs water, slightly beaten

Mix Italian breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and garlic salt together in bowl. Beat 1 egg in another bowl, 1 tbs water and a dash of garlic salt. Dip chicken in egg, then in crumbs and fry in oil until brown on each side (10 – 15 min each side). Pour spaghetti sauce over chicken and sprinkle with cheese, cover so cheese melts and serve. Makes 4 servings.

Japanese Rice Salad

Basmati Rice (boil)

Answer 7

I make turkey spaghetti for my family at least twice a month.  Make sure you get 99% lean ground turkey and opt for a whole grain pasta.  The best pasta sauce, in my opinion, is Ragu Traditional w/meat.  You're looking at under $10.  Oh....and don't forget the garlic bread!

Answer 8

This isn't that healthy, but it tastes great and it's easy.

Pasta

wedge of brie

3 tomatoes

olive oil

minced garlic clove

4 fresh basil leaves

Dice tomatoes, shred and chop basil, crush/mince garlic clove (optional), add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, chop and add brie cubes in a serving bowl.  Mix together.

Cook entire package of pasta, drain and pour on top of ingredients in serving bowl.  Toss and serve.  The hot pasta melts the brie.  The tomatoes taste very fresh and the basil adds nice flavor.

each: onion, carrot and celery cut into quarters. Bring to a bare

boil with lid on; reduce heat to low and simmer for 50 minutes.

To make curry flavouring, soften diced onion in hot oil, then add

curry powder and cook over medium-high heat for a further 3 minutes.

Add wine and water. Boil rapidly until reduced to about 3

tablespoons. Strain and let cool.



Prepare curry mayonnaise by combining all ingredients until smooth.

Place peppers in a large bowl (reserving a little for garnish),

with chicken, pasta, salt, pepper and curry mayonnaise. Mix gently

until well-coated. If mayonnaise mixture is too thick, add warm

water gradually until a smooth consistency is attained.



Place a portion of salad on bed of spinach and sprinkle reserved

peppers on top. Assemble just before serving, as the mayonnaise

quickly loses its fresh look.
