Lite Frito Bandito by Ashley

I love making Chili this time of year and I don't know about you, but I always have so much leftover. This is a great way to change it up. My boys loved it. Obviously this is the healthier version from the hungry girl blog, which is what I ate, but for the boys I used real cheese. Either way it is good.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup low-fat turkey or veggie chili ( I used my normal chili recipe which has extra lean beef in it.)
1 La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Low Carb High Fiber Large Tortilla (or alternative below)
2 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
1/2 package Fritos Original Corn Chips 100 Calorie Pack (or other alternative below!)
Optional: 2 tbsp. diced onion

Directions:
Place chili in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and heat for 45 - 60 seconds, until hot. Set aside.

Lay tortilla flat on a microwave-safe plate, and warm in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Spoon chili down the center of the tortilla. Cover the chili with cheese, and then top with Fritos. If you like, sprinkle with onion.

Wrap tortilla up like a burrito, folding the sides in first, and then rolling it up from the bottom. (Or serve it wrap-style, with one end left open.) Place burrito seam-side down on the plate, and microwave for 30 seconds.
This is for 1 serving!!!

Crush 1 1/2 sleeves of crackers and pour into butter. Stir and spread over bottom of dish. Shred COOKED chicken(boil it to cook it) and layer over crackers. Mix sour cream and both soups together and pour over chicken. Melt 1/2 stick of butter in a mixing bowl. Crush remaining crackers and add to butter. Stir until mixed well then add to top of casserole. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

Beans, Beans, they are good for your heart. :) By: Lindsey

So, maybe because we are from the South...I don't know...but the men of our family L-O-V-E beans. Any kind of bean will do. But they love them. And honestly, most of us women do to. I just started making beans for my hubby. My mother-in-law(the woman who sends me most of these yummy recipes on here) has introduced to me a new way and EASY way to make some good ole black eyed peas and lima bean mixture(or whatever kind of bean you would like). I made them tonight and my dad and husband absolutely loved them. My Dad said he would rather have those beans then the ones my Mom makes with a real ham hock. ha. That should tell you how good they are. Here ya go...it is easy breezy. 1 bag of frozen lima beans(or baby lima beans) 1 bag of black eyed peas 1 can of green beans(optional) 3 packets of Goya Ham Seasoning(they come in a box) Combine all beans together in a pot. Fill up the pot with water just covering the beans. Pour three packets of Goya Ham Seasoning in the pot. Stir...
