Well, you have looked through your cupboards and found some pasta and some old chips; a couple of vegetables are languishing in the fridge and you have a scrap of cheese. Time to combine them all!
Ingredients
Noodles - 1 pound or so
Vegetables - 3 to 6 cups chopped (Onions, zukes, celery, peppers, eggplant, kale, etc)
Tofu (Optional) - 1 block chopped
Ground mustard - 1 tbs.
"Green' Spice - 2-3 tbs. (Parsley, oregano, basil or all three!)
Salt - to taste
Pepper - to taste
Yogurt, Milk, or Rice Milk - 2 Cups
Crushed chips - 2 Cups when crushed
Cheese - 1 cup grated (Parmesan is good, but any cheese works)
Olive Oil - 1 tbs.
Mix it up!
Cook noodles until a little underdone. While noodles are cooking, heat pan and add tofu and onions. Cook for a minute or two and then add other veggies. Add mustard, salt, and pepper. Cover and let them soften.
Turn Oven on to 375. Crush chips in a bowl. Add cheese and mix well
In baking dish or oven-proof pot, mix noodles, cooked vegetables, yogurt/rice milk/milk and 'Green' spices. Make sure mixture is flat and then spread the chip/cheese mixture on top. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes. Top should be golden brown.
If you are in a rush, mix the yogurt/milk/rice milk with the vegetables in the pan and heat it up. Then mix with noodles, place chip/cheese on top and broil it for 4 or 5 minutes. The vegetables and noodles should be hot anyway, so you just need to brown the top.
Should serve 4 or 5 with some leftover.
