Shep'tards' Pie (Invented Saturday, 11/3/07) [WW: 8 points]

Ingredients

• Tyson frozen chicken strips
• Market Basket frozen peas
• One can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup, 98% fat free
• Market Basket instant mashed potatoes, flake style

Instructions

1. Nuke chicken in baking dish;
2. Scatter generous layer of peas (into same dish), still frozen;
3. Glob and distribute can of soup on top of that -- taking care not to cut self or chew up spatula on sharp can edge;
4. Combine ingredients for mashed potatoes as listed on box -- oops, out of milk; compensate with extra water and another spoon of light butter; add Goya Adobo for a kick of garlic, delectible saltiness, and that little dash of ghetto class; schmear admixture on top of all the rest;
5. Bake in oven that you just remembered to start preheating, make a rough guess at about 275 deg.F, for about 40 minutes -- ooh, top is looking crunchy and delicious at the 20 minute mark, add cover to keep moisture;
6. Pat self on back with oven mitt (after safely placing baking dish); enjoy!

Über-Tubers Bliss (Invented Monday, 1/28/08) [WW: 10 points]

Ingredients

• 2 potatoes (I used large white ones, but substitute at will for great justice.)
• 2 cloves of garlic, diced
• 1 small onion (It was a little-ish yellowish one; pester not the artiste for details!), chopped
• 4 tablespoons-ish Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Sea Salt (or Kosher, why not?)
• Ground pepper
• 1 tablespoon rosemary, ground (Unless you LOVE the sensation of chewing on evergreen needles.)
• Goya Adobo (Um, yes. Always.)
• Cinnamon (Lots. I'm a Portugee! I'm allowed carte blanche!)
• Nutmeg (A little, or slightly more. Potently delicious crapola.)
• Cheddar, shredded (I used orange, pre-shredded, low fat cheddar. Cuz I'm ghetto, lazy, and prefer to consume my spare daily points in the form of CHOCOLATE.)
• Grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Boil potatoes in water, 20-25 minutes, or 'til tender.
2. Pre-heat oven to 350 deg F, while cubing 'tatoes.
3. In a roasting pan (later to be covered if you don't fear the DEATHWRAP known by the naive as aluminum foil), drizzle a little oil, then add potatoes, more oil, and all the non-cheese ingredients. Mix about; insert in pre-heated oven.
4. After 20 minutes, stir about and sprinkle cheese atop the 'tato glory.
5. After 10 more minutes, remove. Be patient, it's freaking hot. Now EAT, with or without condiments of choice.
