Noodle and Sausage Skillet Meal

This is one of my favorite meals to make. It’s yummy, it’s a bit of a comfort food and it’s easy to make – not to mention it has veggies which is always a plus ;)

You will need:
• Smoked Sausage (I use Polska Kielbasa)
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cups (one package) of frozen broccoli/ cauliflower/ carrot mix – we use the ones in cheese sauce
• About 2 cups uncooked Rotoni – we use the veggie noodles by Barilla
• 1 can cream of chicken soup, condensed
• 1 cup chicken broth
• ¾ cup water
• Marjoram
• Black Pepper
- We also use seasoned salt, salt, oregano, garlic and a bit of paprika to season it.

You’ll want to sauté the onions and sausage (cut into small disks) in butter or oil until the onions are soft, then add everything else to it. You bring the whole mixture to a boil and then take it down to simmer with a lid on and let it cook, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are cooked. Then enjoy! It’s so delicious! Hope you enjoy! And happy weekend!

Yummy Banana Bread!

Andrew helped me make this last night and it is SO yummy! We had it for breakfast this morning, warmed up with some butter... YUM!

• 2-3 ripe bananas
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 cup of sugar 
• 1 beaten egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), and butter a 4x8-inch loaf pan.
• In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in the melted butter.
• Mix in the baking soda and salt. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract and then mix in the flour.
• Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour or until toothpick comes out clean.*I also take a stick of butter and coat the top of the loaf right after it comes out of the oven*
• Remove from oven and cool completely on a rack. Remove the banana bread from the pan. Slice and serve.
