Our authors love to share recipes with readers. Today, we’ve got the lovely Meg Lacey (Indulgence, Something’s Cooking) sharing Slumgullion, a tasty stew-like dish that ANYONE can make!
The interesting thing about Slumgullion is you can make your own recipe. At its most basic, it’s a casserole or a stew of some type. My family also calls this a Mush-pot because you just mush it around on the plate after you’re thrown it together. This recipe is one my sister-in-law Susan makes when the entire family is in town.
Susan’s Slumgullion
(A yummy go-to casserole that my sister-in-law makes. Slumgullion is an Irish word for an ‘everyday dinner’. Basically it’s a thrown together mash of meat, vegetables, etc. In Susan’s case it is a thrown together mash of pasta, ground beef, Italian sauce and Cheeses. My German father-in-law loved this and named it Slumgullion, even though it was an Italian Dish, developed by a half-Norwegian. Go Figure! )
Ingredients:
1 package of pasta shells
1 Onion
1 lb. ground beef (You can also use turkey or sausage for a spicier flavor.)
1 pt. ricotta Cheese
1 qt. jar of Italian Pasta sauce (such as Ragu, or choose your favorite )
Few tbs. of Fresh Grated Parmesan Cheese
Mozzarella Cheese
Salt to taste
Directions:
Cook shells very very al dente (They will be going in the oven also, so undercook.)
