• Drain off fat.
• Stir in Adobo, dry onion, garlic powder, pepper, Italian seasoning & chili powder. Add broth, spaghetti sauce, creamed corn & olives.
• Simmer meat mixture on low heat for about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted water cook noodles until just al dente & drain.
• Combine meat mixture with cooked noodles & pour into an extra large casserole dish (4 quart 10x14").

BRAISED HALIBUT WITH TAGLIARINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500°F.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tagliarini and cook until about half-done, about 1 minute for fresh and 4 minutes for dried. (They will finish cooking in the braising liquid.) Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and set aside.
• Warm the olive oil in a flameproof gratin dish or heavy oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add the parsley and anchovies, pressing the anchovies with the tines of a fork. Continue to sauté until the parsley sizzles and the anchovies melt into the oil, about 3 minutes.
• Add the fish and sauté it briefly on both sides until the edges of the fish are opaque, about 1 minute on each side. Add the wine, increase the heat to high, and boil rapidly until it is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved pasta water and the noodles, distributing them around and under the fish. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place in the oven and bake until the fish is cooked through and the pasta has begun to absorb the liquid, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve at once, directly from the dish. Sprinkle a few drops of lemon juice, if desired.

TAGLIARINI WITH PESTO, GENOA STYLE

Steps:

• 1 In a food processor or blender, combine the basil, parsley, pine nuts, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Chop fine. With the machine running, add the oil in a steady stream and process until smooth. Stir in the cheese. 2 Bring at least 4 quarts of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and green beans. Cook just until tender, about 8 minutes. Scoop out the vegetables with a slotted spoon. Place them in a warmed serving bowl. Cover and keep warm. 3 Add the pasta to the boiling water and stir well. Cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the pasta is al dente, tender yet still firm to the bite. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the cooking water. 4 Add the pasta, pesto, and butter to the serving bowl with the vegetables. Toss very well, adding a little of the cooking water if the pasta seems dry. Serve immediately. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.

TALLERINE

Steps:

• Pour mixture into casserole dish prepared with butter spray. Arrange sliced processed cheese food on top. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in a preheated 375 degree F(190 degrees C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Stir and serve.

FRESH TAGLIERINI PASTA

Steps:

• Make dough:
• Pulse together all ingredients except additional flour in a food processor until mixture just begins to form a ball. Knead dough on a work surface, incorporating additional flour as necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Divide dough into 4 pieces and keep each wrapped in plastic wrap until ready to roll out.
• Roll out dough:
• Set smooth rollers of a pasta machine at widest setting. Flatten 1 piece of dough into a rectangle and feed through rollers. Fold in half and feed through rollers 8 or 9 more times to continue kneading, folding in half each time and dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking.
• Cut pasta:
• Turn dial to next narrower setting and feed dough through rollers without folding. Continue to feed dough through, without folding, making space between rollers narrower each time until narrowest setting is reached. Halve sheet crosswise and arrange on a dry kitchen towel, letting pasta hang over edge of work surface. Roll out remaining dough in same manner.
• Attach ribbon-pasta cutters to pasta machine and attach handle to 1/8-inch-wide cutter. Line a tray with a dry kitchen towel. Feed first rolled-out pasta sheet, which will have dried slightly but should still be flexible, through cutter and toss with some flour. Form pasta loosely into a nest and arrange on kitchen-towel-lined tray. Make more taglierini with remaining dough. Cover taglierini with plastic wrap until ready to use.

TAGLIARINI WITH MUSHROOMS, GARLIC AND SAGE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• While the water is coming to a boil, heat two and a half tablespoons of the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add the mushrooms and saute over high heat until they have wilted and have started to brown. Stir in the garlic and when it begins to color, reduce the heat to low.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water, stir in and cook it for two to three minutes. Drain it well, put it in a warm bowl and toss with the remaining half tablespoon of oil.
• Increase the heat under the skillet and stir in the sage and pepper flakes, season to taste with salt and pour over pasta. Toss well and serve with Parmesan cheese on side.
