Sunday Potatoes and Noodle Pie

Today, March 31st is the day to honor two staples that were found on my child hood table. Potatoes and Noodles. Both starches and oh so yummy. So I located a great meal plan for all of us to enjoy with potatoes and chicken noodle meatloaf.

Sunday Potatoes

5 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 cup sour cream
2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, divided
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

cook potatoes as normal. In a large mixing bowl, mash potatoes. Add sour cream, cream cheese, 2 tablespoons butter, salt, onion salt and pepper; beat until fluffy. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Dot with the remaining butter. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.

3/4 lb. veal or beef, ground

1/2 cup milk

Minced onion, if desired

3/4 lb. pork, ground

1/2 cup bread crumbs

1 egg

Salt and pepper to taste

Combine meat loaf ingredients and mix thoroughly. Press mixture in a thick layer onto the sides and bottom of a pie pan. Place in oven at 359 degrees F. and bake 40 to 50 minutes. Then place on top of meat loaf the noodles, which have been cooked until tender in boiling salted water, and drained. Dot noodles with butter and return to oven for a few minutes before serving. Serve this dish in pie-shape cuts. A tomato, cheese or mixed vegetable sauce makes a fitting accompaniment for this meal. Serves six to eight persons.
