Expert Hour with Jay Cassill |
From the desk of Jay Cassill:
I want to thank everyone who has called in on the expert hour on WMT radio and asked questions!
I have enjoyed the couple of shows we've done so far and am looking forward to even more coming up. I think the reason I've enjoyed it so much is I get to talk about cars and trucks, something that if you know me, is a conversation I always have loved to do.
I guess it comes from my up-bringing and getting to work beside my brother and parents. I have a passion to fix things! I still love to explore my abilities on new horizons in the mechanical world. You can often find me working on Harleys in my shop at night. (And even an occasional curling iron when my wife breaks hers.) So tune in to WMT at 9:00 on the days I'm on and I'd love to talk cars with you!
-Jay Cassill

On my last expert hour show I had a caller ask...
What is the proper warm up time for a vehicle?
(Wow that's a loaded question)
 In my opinion I would let my gas powered vehicle warm up a minimum of 4-5 minutes in the winter months in Iowa. I would also like to see you let it warm up 2-3 minutes in the summer. Let that oil have some time to warm up so it can lubricate all the internal moving parts.
Now for you diesel owners: You need to let that baby warm up 5-10 minutes in the winter, remember it takes a lot of compression to make that diesel fuel burn! Also, don't forget to plug it in at night because it is easier on your engine!
...And as Chuck from Newhall reminded us: On our rear wheel drive vehicles remember to take it easy when you first get moving - to let the differential oil warm up and coat everything well.

Here's to those New Year's Resolutions:

| Mexican-Style Pasta Bake |
Ingredients 
12 ounces dried bow tie pasta (about 5 cups)
1/2 cup chopped red sweet pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried cilantro, crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
6 ounces colby cheese, cubed
1-1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (6 oz.)
2/3 cup halved pitted green and/or ripe olives
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Butter six 12- to 16-ounce individual casserole dishes (or one 3-quart baking dish); set aside. In a 4-quart Dutch oven cook pasta according to package directions. Drain; return to pan. In a large saucepan cook onion and sweet pepper in butter over medium heat about 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in flour, salt, cilantro, and cumin. Add milk all at once. Cook and stir until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to low. Stir in colby cheese and 1 cup of the Monterey Jack cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Pour over drained pasta; stir to combine.
2. Layer half of the pasta mixture, all of the salsa, and the remaining pasta mixture in the prepared casseroles. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese and olives. Sprinkle lightly with chili powder. Bake, uncovered, 15 to 20 minutes or until bubbly around edges and heated through. (If using large casserole, bake in a 400 degree F oven about 20 minutes.) Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Makes 6 servings.
