Crock Pot Enchilada Casserole

In this house, we love Mexican food.  In fact, when I was pregnant with my son, there wasn't a salsa hot enough to satisfy me.  My co-workers joked that my baby would come out doing a hat dance. :)

I have modified this recipe to make it slightly more 'healthy'.

Enchilada Casserole

2 lbs ground turkey breast, cooked
1 can black beans
1 can pinto beans
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 chopped onion ( I buy the frozen chopped onions, no chopping needed!)
small jar mild salsa
1 can enchilada sauce
whole wheat tortillas
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Spray crock pot with non stick spray.  Cover bottom of crock pot with tortillas. (You will have to tear some to make them fit)
Alternate layers of 1/3 of each of the ground turkey, beans, corn, onions, salsa, and enchilada sauce and tortillas.  Keep alternating layers and reserve a little enchilada sauce and cheese for the top.

Cook on low 4-6 hours, or high for 2 hours.

Eat a big helping and do a hat dance.

Breakfast Pizza

This morning, for something completely different, we had Breakfast Pizza.  A friend shared this recipe while I was scaring her to death in my van on the highway en route to a field trip in Atlanta.  I think she has since recovered.

 My son took this picture.  Thank you, son, for showing the blogosphere my messy kitchen in the background.  But nice shot of our 'subject'!

Cast of Characters:

2 rolls crescent roll dough
Jimmy Dean turkey sausage crumbles (precooked, precrumbled frozen sausage.)
Krogers "Real Bacon" bacon bits.  These are found on the salad aisle and truly are real bacon pieces.
six beaten eggs.
handful of shredded cheddar cheese

optional:  Green peppers, onions, mushrooms, chopped fresh tomatoes...if you swing that way

Preheat oven to 375.
Lay out crescent roll dough in a sheet pan, bringing it up the sides a little.
Sprinkle with a good handful of sausage crumbles and bacon bits. (y'all know I measure using Handful, Pinch, Dash, Blob....)
Pour over your beaten eggs.  Top with a handful of shredded cheese.
Bake until eggs are set.  This took me about 15 minutes, but the more toppings you add, the longer it will take to cook.

We served ours with fresh clementines and milk.  I had mine with a splash of hot sauce. Yum.

This could also be a nice lunch alternative as well!  And it took no time at all to put everything together.
