The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
1/2 cup uncooked pasta (stars, small bows, elbow macaroni)
2 medium bell peppers
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
directions
Prepare pasta according to package directions. Drain.
Cut off and reserve stem ends of peppers. Remove and discard inner membrane. Place peppers cut side down in a 1-quart casserole with 2 tablespoons of water. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, microwave on High just until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain, cover, and set aside.
Chop up usable pepper from stem ends. In a medium microwave bowl, combine chopped pepper, onion, and garlic with 1 tablespoon water. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on High until onions are tender, about 3 minutes.
Crumble the ground beef over the vegetables. Cover and microwave on High until the meat is thoroughly cooked, about 2 minutes. Add tomato sauce, sugar, curry powder, and pasta. Stir to combine.
Fill peppers with mixture. Refrigerate until ready to reheat.
To reheat, cover loosely with plastic wrap. Microwave on Medium until hot, about 6 to 9 minutes.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
