Cook 3 times-& Eat all week!!! This is my new FAVORITE way to cook!!
Meal #1: Buffalo Chicken Casserole by PaleOMG~ click here for recipe
Before I made this recipe I had not ever used ground chicken! But it is sooooo good in this recipe. Trust me 🙂
This is a great recipe to make and reuse throughout the week
Meal #2: Chili
The basic Chili recipe I (loosely)follow is:
- 2-3 lbs of meat this time I wanted to make extra so I used 2 lbs ground beef and 1 lb of ground pork (you can also use bison, bacon, or steak)
- 1/2 yellow onion & clove of garlic (diced)
- 2 cans of tomato sauce
- 1 can of tomatoes
- 2 cans of beans (I used chili & black beans)
- spices- a mixture of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt & pepper.
Heat pan with olive oil & sauté diced onion and garlic
Add ground beef and pork until cooked through
Add beans, sauce, tomatoes, & spices
If you can put all in a crockpot and let it all cook together for several hours it makes it even more yummy!!!
To reuse this meal:
- make it as traditional chili
- put it over a sweet potato
- make it into a rice bowl (pick white, brown or cauliflower depending on your liking)
- or make it into nachos
Meal #3: Bacon Meatloaf
- 1# ground beef
- 1# sausage
- 1 small yellow onion
- 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- bacon
- Place all ingredients except for the bacon in a large bowl
- Mix well ( I just get in there using my hands to mix)
- Put the meat mixture into a loaf pan
- Lay bacon across both ways with bacon and tuck it in
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes (until completely done and there is no pink in the center)
To reuse this meal:
- reheat as is
- crumble up a piece and put it over rice (for a rice bowl)
- have a Meatloaf sandwich
- cook up some diced sweet potatoes and crumble it in all together!
