Cook, Cook, Cook and more Cooking… That is what I have been doing this week.  Steve is taking Meandering Joy from St. Petersburg, to St. Simons Island next week.  He has a crew of three other men.  I am not going along on this trip in person, but I am sending food for the crew.  Why? 

Steve can do many things very well—cooking is not one of those things.  While he is content to eat a frozen pizza or chips and salsa for every meal of the day with some Pop Tarts thrown in for good measure, I was not about to let his crew starve to death while they are with him.  I am sure they will stop for dinners, but it is not feasible to stop for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if they want to cover 600 miles in ten days.  

One of the family favorites is Husband’s Delight.  It is an old recipe I got out of the First Baptist Lawrenceville Cookbook many many years ago.  


I I like to assemble all my ingredients neatly now when I cook.  I have become a little bit more organized .  
Mixing the green onions and sour cream

After stirring the browned ground beef and the spaghetti sauce, begin layering 1/2 the noodles, topped with 1/2 the ground beef topped with 1/2 the sour cream mixture.  Repeat the process once more and then load on the cheddar cheese.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, throw together a salad during that time and dinner is ready.  This is a great recipe to freeze.  I doubled the recipe and made several–two for the boat trip and one for Lainey–this may be her favorite recipe except of course for any of my cheesecakes.

·         3 green onions, chopped

 Directions

Let me know if you try out the recipe.  I would like to know if you like it as much as my family.
