foody friday--as simple as I get

It's Simple Foods for Foody Friday.

Well there's the REALLY simple:

PB & J's for Johnny & I

For the kids:
  • Jam sandwiches (1 or even 2 types of jam if we're getting creative)
  • Cream Cheese sandwiches
  • Jam & Cream Cheese sandwiches
  • Honey Bread
  • Honey with Butter on bread
Then there's the cooked simple:
  • Grilled Cheese
  • Quesadillas

I gave a simple recipe on my last Foody Friday post too.

Then there's dinner tonight where we needed to eat fast. I mixed:
  • 14 oz can black beans, rinsed & drained
  • a couple of handfuls of frozen corn
  • a splash of lime juice
Henri & I enjoyed it though the corn was still frozen.

On the list of common meals I make, here's one that requires the fewest ingredients.

Simple Shepherd's Pie
  • 1/2-1lb Ground Beef
  • 1 can Cream-style Corn (add more veggies or seasonings if you like)
  • 2 cups prepared Mashed Potatoes
  1. Prepare your mashed potatoes if you haven't yet.
  2. Brown ground beef, season as desired, and place in casserole dish.
  3. Pour creamed corn (and other veggies) on top.
  4. Top with mashed potatoes.
  5. Bake at 350 F for about 30 minutes.
