From Ruth Van Waerebeek’s “Everybody Eats Well in Belgium Cookbook.” A simple-to-make, delicious spaghetti dinner — and nicely different from the traditional spaghetti and meatballs. Here, the thick sauce is loaded with vegetables and ground beef (or try ground turkey for a leaner version.) The Gruyère cheese is worth the extra cost; it makes all the difference. I like the extra Tabasco, too. I usually double or triple, and freeze the extra for another meal or two later in the week. This dish, a couple of bottles of wine, and some friends… you got yourself a nice, casual dinner party.

From Ruth Van Waerebeek’s “Everybody Eats Well in Belgium.” Use a rich, dark and slightly bitter beer, such as Rodenbach, or a dark Abbey ale. Serve with French fries or boiled potatoes, applesauce, and beer.
This is a great recipie, but it barely makes 4 waffles. I’ve quadrupled it before and it turned out great!
A healthy side nicely seasoned with onion, garlic, nutmeg and parsley. This side is rich in nutrition and fiber, cabbage is an absolutely phenomenal source of Vitamin C also Vitamin A, E and B, rich in iron and sulfur. This is a good thing to add to your diet if trying to lower blood cholesterol. Just skip the butter!
