Taco Bake(serves 4-6) By: Lindsey

1 box Deluxe Mac and Cheese
1 lb. ground beef
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup thick and chunky salsa

Preheat oven to 400. Prepare mac and cheese as directed on package. While mac and cheese is cooking, brown meat, drain. Add taco seasoning and water to meat; simmer 5 min. Stir sour cream into mac and cheese. Spoon half of mac and cheese mixture into 8 inch square or 9 inch round backing dish; top with layer of meat mixture, 1 cup of cheese and remaining mac and cheese mixture. Cover. Bake 15 minutes in oven. Then top with salsa and remaining shredded cheese. Bake uncovered for 5 additional minutes or until cheese is melted. Can also top with tortilla chips along with salsa and cheese.

I just made this last night. I actually continued doing layers until all my mixtures were gone. It definitely does not have to be perfect. I would also recommend serving it with rice and/or beans. ENJOY!

Sweet Mama Rose's Oatmeal Apple Raisin Muffins By: Lindsey

My husband's grandmother, Mama Rose, is so sweet!! Derek says I don't make any of her stuff....and I will tell you why. It is all made from SCRATCH!! Lasagna, brunswick stew, muffins, cakes, etc. Whew!! It is good food, don't get me wrong. But, my goodness...who has time for recipes all from scratch?? So, I am going to try my hardest to start making some of them. This morning I made her Oatmeal Apple Raisin Muffins. Derek loves them and has mentioned to me before about making them. Keep in mind that Mama Rose is diabetic. Which means, that lots of things she makes is healthier for us. Ha! These muffins are a tasty, healthy treat for you and your kiddos. I love muffins! So, it is fun eating them when I know they have ONLY 1/3 cup sugar and apples and raisins in them. Parker, my son, also loved them. I didn't add any butter to the top of his and he ate them like crazy. 1 egg 3/4 cup milk 1 cup raisins 1 apple, peeled and chopped 1/2 cup oil(I used vegetable oil) ...
