Use any kind of canned beans. Skip the bacon. Cook the onion with the ground beef. Add chili powder or taco seasoning or salsa. Serving Suggestion: Steamed Broccoli

Lower the heat and cover the skillet, simmering for minutes or until the beef rolls are tender. Roasted Brussels Sprouts 1 bag Brussel sprouts Olive oil Salt Pepper Rinse the Brussel sprouts under cool water. Trim the stem end off. I like to cut the sprouts in half too, especially if they are on the larger size. Toss in a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Pour out onto a baking sheet. Roast in 400 degree oven for minutes, until tender. Serving Suggestion: Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Corn on the Cob

I put the chicken in a Ziploc bag. You could marinate the chicken the night before you plan to cook them, the morning before your dinner or about 30 minutes before they hit the grill. Just be sure to put them in the fridge while they re waiting for grill time. Note: This can also be cooked in the oven at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the chicken is cooked through. Green Bean and Tomato Salad 2 cups fresh green beans, cut in bite size pieces 2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half Kosher salt black pepper splash of red wine vinegar Blanch the green beans by adding them to a pot of already boiling water.

Drain again and add to the salad bowl. Stir in the tomatoes. Sprinkle with kosher salt, pepper and add a splash of red wine vinegar. Adjust seasonings and serve. This recipe holds well in the refrigerator for a couple of days. Serving Suggestion: Quinoa
