Hello there!  Haven't been here in a while! Life gets busy, but anyway I wanted to share this quick and simple green bean recipe that I am making with supper tonight!

My husband has high blood pressure so, I buy no salt canned goods when I can and add sea salt as I go or other salt substatues.  We are not completely salt free just trying to lower intake :)

Here is what you will need:
A can of French style green beans
Mrs.Dash Garlic & Herb (salt free)
Soy sauce
oil (I used coconut oil....I'm sure any will do)

Drain your green beans
line the pan with oil about 2 tbl spoons
let heat on med to high heat for about a min or 2
Add beans and let cook
sprinkle with Mrs. Dash( to your liking) and add about a tsp or 2 of soy sauce (to your liking)
Enjoy!!!!

I know everybody and their mother has probably had these before,  but I had to post them, they were so good!

S' more sandwiches are ewy-gewy goodness!!

My ingredients are as follows:   (tweak to your liking)
I used Sippy dark chocolate peanut butter
      (nutella would be great, too)
2 large marshmallows cut in half
2 slices of bread

I put it in my sandwich maker until the marshmallows were melted....and oh so good!!!

If you don't have a sandwich maker just cook it like you would your grilled cheese ;-)

And at times instead of the dark chocolate chips I have added in  Blueberries :)

What's for dinner?

Ok...So I wasn't quite sure what to make for dinner the other night.  I was thinking mexican and didn't have any lettuce for our usual tacos, and really I wanted something different.   So I came up with this....
Mexican lasagna or Mexican Casserole ??
2lb. Ground beef
2pks taco seasoning
8 or 10 in soft taco shells
2 cups any kind of shredded cheese (I used pepper jack)
Corn chips

Brown your meat then add taco seasoning and 1cup of water
Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray then place 2 soft taco shells on the bottom then layer with meat next cheese....continue untill there is no meat left... (mine made 2 layers)
Top with cheese and crunched up corn chips and bake at 350 for about 20 min or untill cheese has melted.

I served mine with sour cream on top ;-)
(I think it would have been good to layer the sour cream in before baking aswell)
