Grandpa casserole

So I know this isn't technically the right name for this meal. It is what I know it by. This became one of my grandpa's favorite meals before his passed away. Grandma even made this the day he passed. So to me this will always be grandpa's casserole. Note didn't have pasta shells when made this or green peppers.

Serves 4

Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1/2 c chopped green peppers
1 Tbs chilly powder
2 1/2 c small shells uncooked
1 c sliced onion
1 1/2 c tomato juice
1/2 tsp salt

Instructions
Brown ground beef, onions, and green peppers in a skillet; until onions are tender. Drain grease. Add tomato juice, chili powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly. Simmer uncovered 10 min. Cook small shells in boiling water until tender. Combine with meat mixture.
Enjoy!

Tatertot casserole

This is something I love to cook. My family loves it. Anyone I've cooked this for loves it. I've cooked it enough I have it memorized. It's also easy and cheep. So works on tight budget.  But I do say if feeding more then 4 make sure you have sides or make 2.

Ingredients
-1lb of hamburger
- 1 can of corn drained
- 1 can of sloppy joe sauce
- tater tots
- favorite shredded cheese

Instructions
1. Pre heat the oven according to directions for tater tots
2. Fry up the hamburger and drain the greese
3. Mix in the sloppy joe and follow the directions on the can
4. Mix in the corn
5. Put it in a 9x13 casserole dish
6. Put the tater tots on top
7. Sprinkle the desire amount of shredded cheese on top
8. Cook for how long the directions say for the tater tots
9. Enjoy :)

Lasagna

So this is something I seem to always get reviews about when I make it. It's a great dinner when having company. It does take a little bit more effort then most of the meals I post. The picture is of the first time I did gluten-free noodles. So it's a little different then I'm used to. This also has the recipe for non oven ready pasta. It does work either way.

Ingredients
- 13 lasagna noodles
- 2 lbs spaghetti sauce
- 1lb or one cube of shredded cheese
- 1 onion
- 2 lbs cottage cheese
- 2 lbs ground beef

Instructions
- preheat oven to 350°
- fry up hamburger and onion together
- boil lasagna noodles if using non oven ready
- in a bowl mix most of the cheese with the cottage cheese
- once hamburger is cooked drain the greese
- mix the speghitti sauce with the hamburger
- sprinkle a little cheese on the bottom of the pan
- layer noddles, hamburger sauce mix and cheese mix
- repeat until reach the top of the pan (if using oven ready do not put noodles near the top. It will not cook probably.
- sprinkle some cheese on top
- cook for 30 min basically until cheese is melted
- enjoy!
