Amish recipe. . .

Amish people have big families, so they use cheap stuff to make filling meals. This recipe can be adjusted for individual taste (ie, could be made with beans or tofu instead of meat if desired.) It can also be adjusted to include things you have or leave out things you don't. Delicious!

Amish Haystacks

Brown 1 lb. ground beef. Add a jar of spaghetti sauce. Prepare the following:

Rice
Crushed crackers
Cheese sauce (could make a white sauce and add a little cheese or just melt cheese with milk.)
shredded lettuce
onions, peppers, tomatoes, etc as available and desired

Assemble haystacks as follows:

1-2 spoonsful of crushed crackers
Large spoonful rice
handful of lettuce
Meat sauce to cover these layers
Assorted add-ins as desired (onion, pepper)
Cheese sauce drizzled over the top.

Enjoy!
