what we've been eating

Gooooooooooood morning!  And happy Thursday, everybody.  I am in a good mood today because I got my hair did yesterday, and I painted my toenails.  Those are two very good things.  Anyway, I have some recipes to show you guys today that I think you'll really enjoy.  All of these are both barefoot ballerina and Austie Marie approved.  Take a look! 

This Thai Red Curry Chicken was grrrrreat!  It had wonderful flavor, but my favorite part was the sweet potato.  Any dish that includes those orange beauties immediately has my vote!

I also recently made these pulled pork sammies.  I used my go to recipe for crock pot pulled pork, and I stuck the end result on a sweet hawaiian roll with some extra BBQ sauce and sliced avocado.  I served these babies up with a side salad and called it a meal.  

This is how I made the pork

The Pioneer Woman was the source of another yummy meal I made the other day.  Her beef and bean burritos were perfect.  They were pretty quick and fairly easy to put together, and Austin was a big fan. These are definitely man friendly.  As you can see, I served them with a side of corn.

This recipe for pasta with chicken and veggies in a light cream sauce was a pinterest find.  It is the perfect thing for the warmer months that are ahead, and it's also a great alternative to heavier, creamier pasta dishes.

Again, we had a little salad on the side.  This is the same recipe for my simple shrimp salad, but I just left off the shrimp.

Here's the link for the salad

A favorite dinner around these parts is this turkey spaghetti.  It's very easy to make...cook pasta, cook turkey, open a jar of sauce, combine.  Yum!

Another quick and easy meal we eat a lot are these turkey burgers.  To prepare these, I make patties out of a pound of ground turkey, season them with salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin.  Once the patties are cooked, I top them with cheese, spinach, and avocado slices.  I ate mine with some pita chips and hummus.  It was a very pleasant little meal.

Hopefully you found something you might want to make soon!  Like I said, all of these meals were totes delish.  Try one out!
