Re: JUNE RECIPE EXCHANGE GAME

This is my family's favorite recipe and they have shared it with friends all over the country and now my grandkids love it and they are sharing it with their friends. It's simple to make and tastes great.

GODFATHER CASSEROLE

1 1/2 lbs ground chuck

2 jars spaghetti sauce ( I use 4 cheese, but you can use what you prefer)

2 cups sour cream (or more if you prefer)

1 pkg cream cheese (8 oz)

l large package egg noodles

2 cups mozarella cheese shredded

Brown ground beef and drain, add spaghetti sauce, season to taste and simmer for just a little while. Boil egg noodles according to package directions. I use the extra wide noodles. In a seperate bowl, mix the cream cheese and sour cream. When noodles are done, drain and put in the bottom of a 13X9 baking dish ( I use glass sprayed with Pam). On top of nooldes spread sour cream/cream cheese mixture, then pour the ground beef/spaghetti sauce mixture. Put in oven at 350 and bake until it's bubbly around the edges, top with the 2 cups of shredded mozarella and bake until cheese melts. I serve this with salad and garlic bread. When my son was in high school, his friends would come over everytime we had this because it was everyone's favorite, when he went into the Marine Corps his wife had to learn to make it and they shared it all over the country wherever they were posted at the time. Now they are all back here in Texas and my grandkids have gotten their friends into Godfather, so now they all request that whenever they are all around. You can substitute low fat sour cream, cream cheese, and mozarella cheese if you want. This is easily doubled, but when I double it, I bake it in a large metal pan, it's probably about a 11 X 15 size pan maybe, not sure on the size.

Next Ingredient RICE

Mrs. Murhpy's Meatballs

Man, I didn't know people were so crazy about meatballs! Since I

mentioned that Mrs. Kathryn Murphy makes meatballs that are kinda special,

I've been getting letters and phone calls for the recipe. So, here's the

recipe right from Mrs. Murphy." - Joe Browne's Our Towne column (Browne's

Our Town column appeared daily in the Post-Gazette from 1969 until 1989.)

1 lb ground chuck

1/4 cup uncooked rice (not instant)

Green pepper, chopped fine

Small onion, chopped fine

1 stalk celery, chopped fine

2 cups cabbage, finely shredded

1 can cream of tomato soup

1/2 soup can of water

You will need a large frying pan at least 2 inches deep. Pour the tomato

soup and water in the frying pan; place over a low heat.

In large bowl, mix together thoroughly the meat, rice and vegetables. Form

mixture into balls (our meatballs were about 1 1/2 inches).

Place the meatballs in the frying pan with the tomato soup. (This is

important: The meatballs should be placed in the pan raw - do not fry.)

Simmer for about 1 1/2 hours.

Note: We used a food processor to chop the vegetables.

We served Mrs. Murphy's Meatballs with mashed potatoes and a green salad.

NOTE:buy the cole slaw mix. Then you get some carrots in there as well. I also add a little grated onion because I love the flavor.

The sauce thickens nicely when cooking all that time and the house really does smell heavenly. No wonder the mailman followed the scent to Mrs. Murphy.
