Recipe for starving college students

WUDDUP CHANGALINS? 

Today's a blog catch up day! This one will be a recipe I kinda.. formed. My apt fridge was empty so I went out and got random stuff to make. :( A starved Katie is not a happy Katie. 

I call it.. ok.. I couldn't think of anything so I just asked the boyfriend while he's playing Naruto.. and he calls it..

Lonely Friday Night Pasta in one pot!

Ingredients:

- your choice of pasta, mine's Anthony's Small Shells

- tomato sauce

- pepper and salt

- Worcestershire Sauce

- Basil

- Oregano

- 4 cloves garlic, chopped (i love garlic)

- half yellow onion, chopped

- Aji Mirin (optional)

- Lawry's Spaghetti sauce season mix

- half pound ground beef

Open your pasta and put in as much as you need, I did about a cup

I think you all know how to boil pasta. I like to salt my water when I'm boiling, I just like it like that. A palm full should do, depends on your pot.

Wait for water to boil, then toss in pasta

Strain pasta, dump all the water out. (i lost my strainer so.. yeaaaa..)

Put pot back on stove, pour in some oil. Dump in your chopped garlic! MMMM!

Chop up your onions and toss those in too! Cook until soft.. who wants hard onions right?

Once onions and garlic are well cooked, toss in your ground beef, cook cook cook!

I actually put in some Aji Mirin here to cook the meat, it gives it a nice taste, COMPLETELY optional though. Up to you and whether or not you even use it!

Good time to toss in a little salt and pepper

Open your can of tomato sauce and pour that shit in there! I hate this brand, don't get it. It was a last resort thing.

Pour in HALF this packet and a TABLESPOON OF OIL plus ONE CUP OF WATER (only cookin for myself!) If you don't.. it'll be too thick.

Season as you like. I only did one dash of oregano (strong!) and two dashes of basil (mmmm)

Pour in 1 and a half tablespoon of worcestershire sauce.. could be done when you're cooking meat or when you're making the sauce.

pepper and salt as you like again.. serve!

The end. Easy, people probably know how to do this already but this is for people who are starving and want to try something easy.

FUNNY STORY. 

My mom gave me a new can opener.. which works like shit. How do i know it works like shit? Well.. I used it for the first time on that can of tomato sauce, and it cut a centimeter.. stopped cutting.. cut some more.. stopped cutting.. very uneven and YES i know how to use a can opener.. it was WEIRD. In the end, I got half the can cut open while the meat was cooking.. so being desperate.. I used a fork to push up the lid but it wasn't cut enough so I was like.. FUCK IT.. I pushed the lid down, hoping it would bend.. well it bended faster than I thought and the can ended up exploding in my face. YUP. Tomato sauce on my face, shirt, glasses.. you name it. 

:) Adios! Next blog!
