menu of the week...

foodie 5

this is what we are eating for dinner this week!

Amy's Sloppy Joes - tyson's sisters are seriously AMAZING cooks! AMAZING! one of tyson's sisters Amy, happens to make killer sloppy joes. i've always liked my mom's sloppy joe's, but i dunno Amy's are SO GOOD! I think it's the can of pork'n'beans. nonetheless they are bomb.com!

so what you will need is:
1 lb browned ground beef
small/medium chopped onion
1 sloppy joe seasoing packet
7 oz can diced green chilis
1 can v8 OR 1 can tomatoe soup ( i use the soup)
2 cans pork n beans drained

Brown your meat with the onion (drain oil from the meat) then add the seasoning packet and can of v8 or tomatoe soup. Combine meat mixture and other ingredients in a pan or crock pot and let cook as long as you like! we will have the sloppy joe's on hamburger buns and add cheese. we will also have corn on the cob and chips.

black bean spinach enchiladas - don't think these aren't good because they are meatless. they are actually REALLY good! And if you really wanted too, you could totally add chicken to them. it's like a bean and cheese burrito kicked up a notch. it's nice, simple and quick! I like to use colby jack cheese instead of the pepper jack, but obviously you can do whatever pleases you! and of course i will serve this corn souffle. it really is super yummy!!! we will also have a side green salad.

sesame peanut noodles - this is a new recipe for me that we are going to try this week. it looks easy and really yummy. a few things i changge, is use whole wheat spaghetti noodles and i'm going to also just add in my own veggies that sound good, like sugar snap peas and some asaparagus. i will also pick up some egg rolls from our favorite asian restaurant. yummy! i'll let you know how this recipe goes!

teriyaki chicken - this is a really yummy dish. i personally leave the fish sauce out of this dish. i will serve it up with brown rice and fresh fruit.
