Egg Noodle Lasagna

Easy Egg Noodle Lasagna

One of the things I’ve always loved about Lasagna is the layers of flavor stacked into the noodles. I’m a big tomato and cheese fan so, much like pizza, this dish always hit home for me. The thing I don’t care for so much, about a traditional lasagna recipe, is the fact that it takes so long to make. This Egg Noodle Lasagna is a wonderful recipe that knocks out almost half of the normal cooking time so, you can enjoy more eating instead of waiting eat. And this recipe is just bursting with flavor as well. Plus, it’s smothered and baked with cheese and has all of the other great ingredients that make any Lasagna so heavenly when it hits your pallet.

Smothered Salmon

The Best Smothered Salmon

This Smothered Salmon recipe is something I came up with years ago. My wife has a serious love for this fish so I wanted to create something that was undeniably the best and believe it or not, this recipe can be prepped and cooked in just 15 minutes. It has a Garlic, Wine and Butter Broth that is just amazingly smooth. I actually use this to saute the Onions and Peppers as well as steam the fish. I like to prop the Salmon right over the top of the veggies so the filet can steam from below as well as from above when I top the pan with a lid. Then after just a few short minutes I smother the fish with Mozzarella Cheese, then cover back up with the lid long enough for it to melt. Once it has, you have a perfectly cooked Salmon that is ready to serve. Total cooking time is, approximately, 6 to 7 minutes. And once it hits the plate, I dash pieces of Bacon, I sprinkle freshly chopped Parsley and then I splash some Balsamic Vinegar right over the top.

Green Enchilada Sauce

The Best Green Enchilada Sauce

This is my Green Enchilada Sauce recipe. It’s as good as it gets! I had several requests to make it after I posted the Red Enchilada Sauce and since I’m planning on making Chili Verde for my next Video recipe, I thought I better get on this so you can have all the sauce ingredients to make that as well.

What’s the Secret?

I made this with fresh Tomatillo Tomatoes and Anaheim Peppers. It has Onions, Garlic and a few dry ingredients that real help lift the natural flavors in this sauce. There’s only a few minutes of prep and only 10 minutes of cook time, so you can crank this sauce out fast. It goes great with Chili Verde and it makes fantastic Chicken Enchiladas and I’ll post that recipe link down below along with the Red Enchilada Sauce I mentioned.
