Simple Cooking V-Log One! Baked Ziti and Ceasar Salad!!

Alright everyone, this is it! This is what Jay and I have wanted for Simple Cooking all along. Our ultimate goal has always been to turn Simple Cooking from a a text blog into a V-log. I know it's not the best quality, but this is our very first one and we're SO excited about it! I hope you all enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it, and eating the final results...Jay had some for breakfast this morning as well hahaha!

Also along with posting the V-log here, we ask that you all check out our brand new Simple Cooking Channel on You Tube. So here it is, what everyone's been waiting for! The Simple Cooking V-Log!

I hope you all enjoyed it! Here are the written instructions as promised!

Three Cheese Baked Ziti

Ingredients:

• 1 box ziti noodles
• 2 jars of tomato and basil spaghetti sauce
• shredded mozzarella cheese
• shredded/ground Parmesan cheese
• sliced provolone cheese
• sour cream

Alright so before we really dig in, you want to set a pot of water to boil, make sure it is big enough to cook the entire box of noodles. After that, things move super fast and you really have only about 10 minuets of wait time.Preheat over to 350 degrees Add box of noodles to the boiling pot of water, and cook for about 7-10 minuets until the noodles are al dente (see glossary term at the end of the recipe) Once the noodles are cooked, pour them into a strainer and rinse with cold water until they're luke warm.

Next, get out a baking pan, one you might use for other kinds of casserole, or cakes, etc. and cover the bottom with the cooled noodles.

Add on a layer of sauce, covering the noodles. Place the provolone cheese around the pan on top of the noodles and sauce. Next add on a nice thick layer of sour cream. (Helpful Hint: I like to spread the sour cream on each slice of provolone before putting it into the pan. I learned the hard way what it's like to spread sour cream onto something that is slippery underneath! )
Add another layer of noodles, and another layer of sauce.

The next layer is a nice, thick spread of mozzarella cheese, don't be afraid to cover it all!
Layer on the last of the noodles, and the rest of the sauce once more time. Finally cover the top with the Parmesan, as much or as little as you like, it doesn't matter a whole lot, do it to taste!
When you're all done, put it in the over for 10 minuets, just util it starts to boil at the top a little and the cheese melts. Remove from the oven and serve it up!

Cesar Salad

Ingredients:

• Lettuce
• Parmesan cheese
• Croutons
• Cesar dressing

Break lettuce up wash it up if you choose, fold in Parmesan cheese and croutons, then mix in just enough dressing to coat everything without drowning it all.

There ya go, that's all you need! I hope you all try it and really enjoy it! :)
