I'm back! I know to some of you I was never gone but I took a wonderful vacation with my two sisters and mom. We picked a great cruise that started in Los Angles and made its way up the coast of California and into Canada. It was a blast. We laughed and ate and toured cities and ate and ate and ate....haha it was so nice to have all three meals made for me! A much appreciated break from cooking for a little bit. Of course my favorite stop was at Ghirardelli's in San Francisco. I had to get my chocolate duh!
So today I bring you a 15 minute meal. Why? Because that is all I really wanted to spend on fixing dinner tonight lol where is that chef when you need him? Oh ya, I left him behind :( haha
But isn't that how we all feel every once in a while? We want to serve our family a good, healthy, tasteful meal every night but sometimes don't have the time or energy to do so. But with this meal I think you can hit all three of those goals with a smile and without breaking a sweat.
Here is what you need:
(and a package of ground turkey meat not pictured..it was already on the stove cooking when I took this picture!)
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Yields: 3 Corn Muffin Waffles
Ingredients:
1 box of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
1 lb. of ground turkey
1 can of low-sodium Chili Beans
Olives
Lettuce
Onions
Any other vegetable topping you like: tomato, avocado, etc.
Light Sour Cream
Instructions:
1. In a pan, brown your ground turkey and season to your liking. We like our meat spicy so I seasoned it with pepper and chili powder.
2. Follow the instructions on the Jiffy Corn Muffin box. When ready, use a waffle iron to bake each batch.
(sorry that is not the best picture...one of the pieces crumbled when I removed it from the waffle maker)
3. Top your corn muffin waffle with your lettuce, meat, beans, olives, onions, and sour cream! Easy as that!!
It is so simple and basic but the flavors in the dish is what makes it new and exciting. The corn muffin waffle is sweet but the meat and onions bring in a little bit of spiciness that just makes it fantastic!
