Healthy Homemade Meals ROCK!
Tonight I made a new casserole dish that I've never tried before for my family...and they not only LOVED it but also it was healthy!! Casseroles are my favorite dinners to make because they're easy and all you have to do is through in all the ingridients into a casserole dish and let the oven cook the rest! Here's what I created with random food items I had:
Homemade Mac 'N' Cheese Casserole:
Pan #1 - Cook the noodles
Pan #2 - Cook some ground beef
- After I cooked the noodles I let then drain in a collander and used the same pan/burner to just throw in some veggies (ok I used ALOT of veggies lol!) and warmed them up on the stove.
- After the meat is cooked, noodles are drained and veggies are warm...throw everything into a casserole dish and add half a chunk of MELTED Velveeta Cheese dip. I added about 1/4 cup of milk to add more texture :)
- Before I stuck this into the oven, I graded some cheese on top (which my fam loved!)
- Stick the casserole (uncovered) into the oven on 425* and let cook for about 45 - 60 minutes...Depending on how brown you want it :)
