Pizza Casserole and Coconut Brownies (not in the same pan)

We were at a local grocery store here and they were sampling these two recipes. The pizza casserole is yummy. I haven't tried the brownies yet but they sounded good too.

Pizza Casserole
3 cups macaroni, uncooked
1 lb ground sausage (Italian ground turkey can be substituted)
1/2 cup pepperoni, quartered
2 1/2cups pizza sauce
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
Brown sausage and drain. Add pepperoni. Cook 5 min longer. Cook pasta 10 min. Rinse and Drain. Add pizza sauce, seasoning, and 1 cup cheese. Pour into sprayed 9X13 pan. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake @ 350 for 25 min.

Coconut Brownies
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp cocoa
1/2 cup coconut
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla. Combine flour and cocoa; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in coconut. Spread into a greased 13x9 baking pan. Bake @ 350 for 22-25 minutes. Insert toothpick 1 inch from side to check if they are done.

Sweet and Sour Chicken

This is a super yummy meal I got from a friend:


3 # bonless chicken (cut in pieces)

Garlic Salt, pepper & msg (sprinkle on chicken)

Roll in cornstarch.

Dip in egg mixture (2 eggs + 3 tsp Water).

Fry until golden.

Place in glass pan.

Cover with Sauce (1/2 cup Ketchup, 1/2 chicken boullion cube, 2 T Soysauce, dash of salt, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup vinegar)

Bake 350 for 1 hr turning chicken half way through. Eat the chicken with rice and use the sauce as a gravy. It is so good!
