I need super simple recipes PLEASE for the following things:
Pinto beans. Great northern beans. Lentils. Navy beans. Red and light red kidney beans. White rice.
Spaghetti noodles, egg noodles. I just need some ideas !!!
 
I make tuna noodle casserole with egg noodles. I use sour cream, cream of golden mushroom soup, tuna, peas and carrots. Boil noodles. Drain. Mix all ingredients together. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, turmeric or just season how you want. Throw into an oven safe dish. Butter or cooking spray dish. Bake in oven 30m at 350
 
Red kidney beans are great in red beans and rice. I adjusted the ingredients to taste, and they're not authentic New Orleans style, for sure. I use one can of dark (you can use light too) to one smoked sausage, and I use an instant pot, but you can use a crockpot or even just a pot on the stove. Cook the beans (undrained) well with garlic (I used minced from a jar), onion (powder here), parsley, cayenne, and a couple of bay leaves. Once they've cooked for a while, add in the sliced sausage and cook that for another while until it's cooked through. Cook some rice of your choice and serve together!
 
I don't know if it's good yet, it's a recipe on this week's "try me" list at our house, but it's basically bean lasagne. Beans, sauce, seasoned ricotta, topped with mozzarella or parmesan and baked
 
With the pinto beans just cook them in chicken broth with a quartered onion, 5 cloves of smashed garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, and any of these: smoked ham hock or smoked pork neck bones, ham or a hambone, and bacon or bacon grease. Cook until tender, adding water as needed and stirring occasionally. Serve with fried potatoes and onions and cornbread. Can also make refried beans or chili with the beans as well. If you want, you can even add 2 cans of rotel to the beans, or jalapenos
