Beef and Chipotle Chili

Beef and Chipotle Chili
I have a confession to make – I am not the hugest fan of turkey chili.  My buffalo chicken chili?  Yep!  But not all ground turkey breast – it tastes dry to me, which is weird when you put it in chili.  So one way to get in some amazeball flavor is to add some delicious 80/20 beef.  Certified Angus Beef ® brand. Meijer grocery store is...

If you guys haven’t gotten Gina from Skinny Taste’s latest cookbook, you need to pick it up.  It’s called One and Done and so many great and diverse recipes.  Since I had a 4 pound package of Certified Angus Beef ® brand ground beef, I went in search of a ground beef recipe in her cookbook.

Leftover Beef Asian Lettuce Cups

Leftover Beef Asian Lettuce Cups
I didn’t do a true meal plan this week, because I knew I had plenty of food in my house to make the week work.  Especially after I found six bags of different types of frozen chicken.  I said on my Instagram page that if anyone was in the NW suburbs and saw me looking at chicken in the discount meat pin, they had full...
