Even though this is a short week, it is CRAZY busy. Sports practices + business trips + meetings = lots of love for the crock pot and go-to easy favorites :)
Monday - Spaghetti with Chicken Meatballs
Tuesday - Slow Cooker White Bean Soup
Wednesday - "Bangers and Mash" (aka Aidell's Turkey/Apple sausage links over Mashed Potatoes)
Thursday - Taco Chicken Bowls
Friday - Leftovers and/or Freezer Pick
Saturday - Chili
Sunday - Crock Pot Baked Potato Bar
Chili - My chili recipe could not be easier.
1 lb ground turkey
medium onion diced
large green pepper diced
2 cans diced tomatoes (no salt added)
2 cans pinto beans
1 pkg Carol Shelby's chili mix
Saute the turkey, onion and green pepper until brown. Add all other ingredients plus 1 cup water. Simmer as long as you like.
Some people make their own chili mix (and that is great!) but I find the Carol Shelby mix to be flavorful, inexpensive and quick. Which is exactly what I need on weeks like this one!
At least once a month (usually when the hubs is on a business trip), we do a leftover/freezer pick night to clean out the fridge and use up what we have. The kids like getting to pick their own dinner (there aren't really any rules on freezer pick night) and I like using up things that would normally go to waste. Win-win!
