Beef Enchilada Baked Pasta

September 4, 2017 by johnson_mel@hotmail.com

Beef Enchilada Baked Pasta

Beef Enchilada Baked Pasta makes a great healthy dinner or meal prep recipe! It is full of lean protein, vegetables and complex carbs.

Try this simple twist on the standard baked pasta dish. Trade the marinara for enchilada sauce, then add green chiles and black beans for even more flavor!

Whole wheat pasta and black beans provide lots of fiber in this dish while lean ground beef adds plenty of protein!

Meal Prep Taco Salad Bowls

Meal prep is a big part of my weekend routine. I like to prepare food on Saturday & Sunday so that I have healthy meals available all week long. For a low carb, high protein lunch option, try making these Meal Prep Taco Salad Bowls!

Taco salads in restaurants can be quite deceiving. Sure the term “salad” seems like a healthy option, however a lot of restaurants pack a ton of unhealthy ingredients into their taco salads. [Read more…]

Healthy Enchilada Casserole

Healthy Enchilada Casserole

One of my favorite cuisines is Mexican. I love rice, beans, cheese, green chile and tortillas plus all the seasoning combinations! The only bad part about Mexican food is that it can be high in calories and high in fat. However to get my Mexican food-fix, I made a healthy enchilada casserole that is perfect for meal prep!

To save a little labor I made a casserole by layering the ingredients, rather than rolling them all into a corn tortilla. [Read more…]

Extra Lean Italian Burgers

Extra Lean Italian Burgers

I happen to really love hamburgers. I know a lot of people that choose to be healthy and eat healthy by being vegetarian or vegan. I support their decision 100%, but I personally could not do it. I love beef, chicken, and pork of course, but also meats like turkey, deer, bison, duck, etc.

I would not be able to ever fully eliminate meat products from my diet. So instead, I will make them healthy! One of my favorite ways to eat meat is in the form of a burger. I am American, ya know. [Read more…]

Hamburger Lettuce Wraps

Hamburger Lettuce Wrap-edit

Let’s just say that Donny is quite the lucky guy these days! We went to the Fort Morgan Elks Lodge on Friday night for a chance to win Broncos tickets to the game yesterday. We were hanging out with a few of our friends before the drawing and they have these “pull-tab” tickets that you buy to win money (same idea as a scratch ticket). Some are 25 cent winners, some $1 winners, and a few bigger prizes. [Read more…]
