Home Made

Today I made homemade noodles, and home made croutons.  I went shopping the other day, and needed noodles.  I refuse though to pay full price for them, and I am out.  So I decided that I would just make my own when I made lasagna again, I mean how hard can it be.

So tonight was the night.  I was making a spin on a lasagna recipe I like.  So not only was I going to make noodles I was also going to change a recipe a little.  What a busy night.  So I found a recipe for noodles (I lost the link, but you can just search for a recipe for pasta or noodles if you want one)  mine I think was something like this

2 cups flour, 1/4 t salt, mix together.. make a bowl in the middle.   Mix 3 eggs, 1 t oil, and 1 T milk (i messed this up though and put in 1 T oil and 1t or a splash more of milk.  mix slowly into the flour/salt.  knead, let rest, knead again, and roll out.     (i would suggest you just search for one)

I boiled them.  pulled them out, used my lasagna recipe  , but instead of layering it, I rolled the cheese  (and a little sauce) into the noodles to make individual little rolls.  Then I baked it per directions..


The croutons where just a after thought when Scott asked if we had any,  I was like no, but i can make some.. so I cut up the last of the bread (home made the other day) and stuck it in the oven for a little bit of time (i just watched them)  i did sprinkle them with a little onion powder.. wish I had garlic, but i don't.  I am pretty excited about my going out into homemade cooking..

now to learn how to make spaghetti sauce from scratch, then I won't buy anything canned.  I will have to learn that this summer.   I am planting some tomato plants on the side yard.

wish I had pictures but I don't.  It looked pretty good though, and everyone ate it up!
