| 1. brown ground beef/turkey with onion & 1 tsp of the garlic powder. | 2. while meat is cooking boil water for pasta & cook it til still chewy, as it will cook more in the oven. | 3. when meat is done drain & rinse with hot water to remove as much grease as possible, put back in pan & add jelly & half the pasta sauce, cook til jelly disolves into meat & sauce. | 4. take all ingredients(except cheese) & place in 9X11 in casserole. | 5. mix thoroughly. | 6. toss 1/4 of the cheese in with other ingredients & mix. | 7. then sprinkle rest of cheese on top, bake @ 375 til golden & bubbly & enjoy! | 8. As for Once a Month Cooking -- this is how I do it -- | 9. I double, triple or quadruple the recipe except when it comes to the step to place it in the casserole dish I instead place it in large round ice cream buckets I've sprayed with cooking spray, place some plastic wrap on top then place lid & freeze. Then on the day you want to cook it, get it out of freezer in the morning, run bucket under water to loosen a bit. then take contents out (in one huge lump) & put in large round crockpot, it fits perfectly! Set on low, come back 5-6 hours later & voila dinner! You can also use the ice cream bucket method for other casseroles & soups & stews. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
