jeez, five or less? what kind of recipe do you want? tuna fish sandwich? here you go. 5 ingredients plus salt and pepper!
pasta alla ciociara
twirly shaped pasta
1 can of diced raw tomatoes
1 medium ball of fresh mozzarrella - diced into cubes
1/2 cup of pecorino romano - grated
1 tablespoon dried or fresh oregano (more if fresh)
salt and pepper to taste
preheat oven to 350 degrees
boil you pasta, the twirly kind work best for this one and cook until its tender. in a small pot over medium heat add the can of diced tomatoes cook for about 10 minutes. the tomatoes should reduce and thicken. take the pot off the heat and add cubes of mozzarrella and stir at the same time. if you add all the mozz at one time it will clump back up into a ball. next add the oregano and the pecorino cheese. combine the pasta and the sauce into a cassarole dish and pop in the oven for about twenty minutes. top with more grated pecorino cheese.

One of my favorite easiest things to make is fruit salad. Its usually a big hit too. All you need is two cans of fruit cocktail and a container of cool whip. Just mix them together. You can use more than two cans if you need too. If you want to make it look pretty, then put some marachino cherries on top. I hope you like it.

In foil, wrap a roast covered in barbecue sauce. Put it in a crock pot for seven hours. When its finished use a fork to shred it, add more barbeque sauce. Spoon it on a bun, add a pickle and a side dish.
As an option I have added an envelope of dry onion soup mix with the barbeque sauce inside the foil.

There are a variety of different dishes out there that I have found that one can cook with five or less ingredients. I know that I have a few in my recipe book that I tend to use when it's been a rather hectic day. And I just want something quick & simple to prepare to me & my other half. Especially if the both of us ended up having a rather hectic day.
Below I enclosed a few recipes that I have found to be rather useful when I am having a busy day & need something easy to prepare. I hope if you end up trying these recipes that you not only find them simple to prepare.. But I also hope you find them just as delicious as we do! . .
Thanks for allowing me to share! xx
"Fettuccine Alfredo."
Ingredients are as follows:
- 1/4 of a cup of milk or heavy cream
(preferably milk)
- 10 ounces of a jar of alfredo sauce
- 9 ounces of refrigerated fettuccine pasta
- 1 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
Directions are as follows:
- In a large sauce pan, combine both the sauce, as well as the milk together & mix well to combine.
- Heat gently over low heat.
- Meanwhile while doing this, cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions & then drain well. Afterwards immediately stir in the hot sauce mixture you had helped to prepare & toss gently to coat the fettuccine. Make sure to serve with parmesan cheese as well!
Another recipe from my collection is:
"Rotini Sloppy Joes."
Ingredients are as follows:
- 4 cups of uncooked rotini pasta
- 2 pounds of lean ground beef or regular ground beef (whichever you may prefer)
- 2 cups of water
- 4 cups of frozen whole kernel corn (I use green giant)
- 2 jars of sloppy joe extra thick & chunky sauce
Directions are as follows:
- Firstly cook, then drain the pasta just as directed on the package.
- While the pasta is cooking, start to cook the beef in a large skillet or even a dutch oven over medium - high heat for roughly 8 - 10 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally until ground beef is browned. Then drain the excess fat.
- Stir in the pasta afterwards, as well as the remaining ingredients.
- Heat all of this until boiling, then reduce the heat to medium. Cover & simmer this for 5 - 10 minutes, stirring occasionally once again. Serve when ready & ENJOY!

Just like to share this easy to cook vegetable dish. Most of the time I use leafy vegetables. You may try other types though and let me know if it tastes just as good.
For this dish you just need green leafy vegetables, oyster sauce and fried shallots (optional).
1) Boil some water in a pot or pan - enough to cover your vegetables. Put in a pinch of salt and some oil (olive oil is fine)
2) When the water is boiling, put in your vegetables and let it cook until it is almost cooked. Don't overcook it or else it becomes limp.
3) Drain off the water. Put the vegetables on a plate.
4) Add some oyster sauce to the vegetables. You may also add some fried shallots if you have them.
5) Mix the sauce, shallots and vegetables.
It's done. Enjoy!
Okay, I know there's an even easier way to do vegetables - just eat it raw! Lol. It's just that for some vegetables, I just can't take it raw. Try the above way if you think you will like it!

Tea cookies:
1 cup butter
1/2 cup 10x confectioners sugar
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
Cream butter and sugar together. Add vanilla to mixture and then add sifted flour and salt slowly. Chill dough for one hour in fridge, divide and roll into one inch balls and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 13-17 minutes. Cookies will puff up slightly but only brown slightly on bottom when done. Let cool, roll in 10x sugar to coat. Diced pecans or almonds can also be added to recepie (but that would have been more than the alloted 5 ingredients).
Enjoy.

Darn, I meant pecans or walnuts could be added. Almonds might taste a little weird.

its a chicken recipe:-
8 chicken bre ast
2/3 hot pepper jelly
2/3 apple juice
wash the chicken and pat it dry.mix the jelly and juice well. put the chicken on the grill and cook till done . about 5 minutes. before you take it off the grill, brush it with the jelly mixture, it would burn if you put it on, in the beginning. if u want to serve with mixture at a sauce with the chicken, boil the jelly for a couple of minutes as there be some chicken juice in the sauce and that would NOT be good.
