Friday Macaroni Bake

Friday is normally my shopping day, that's why, on Thursday and Friday I am trying to use all the leftovers, from last shopping. I really hate wasting food!!

That's how this recipe came to life :) You can add and take whatever you fill like, mine will never be the same.

Todays version:

Ingredients:

-2 kinds of smoked sausage (Mine was homemade, not by me, back in Poland. But nowadays  you will find good smoked sausage in all supermarkets, Polish and German will taste similar)
/or you can use any leftover bacon, ham and meat that you have in your fridge.
-2 tins of chopped tomatoes
- some mushrooms
- 2 carrots
-large onion
-2 cloves of garlic
- grated cheese (if you have different kinds of cheese left, use it. I have used two types of grated cheese, it looks nicer. But you can also use some feta cheese/blue cheese/mozzarella etc.)
-pasta (I always have some opened packs of different kind, and this is perfect time to mix them and use)
-splash of oil
-salt, pepper and Provence herb mix (my favourite herb mix)

How to make:

Cook your pasta in salted water.
Fry sausages (other meat), when they will get nice colour add chopped onion and garlic fry for a while, until onion is golden. Add grated carrots and sliced mushrooms. Sweat them for a while, then add tinned tomatoes and a splash of water. Bring it to boil and season to taste.
In ovenproof dish mix sauce with pasta and sprinkle as much or as little cheese on the top as you like.

Bake in pre heated oven (gas mark 6; about 190/200C) for about 20 minutes, or until cheese will melt and become golden on the top.

Serve with side salad :)
Hope you will enjoy and change to your liking :)
