    Taco Stuffed Spaghetti Squash

    Fall is here.  So much squash.  We have been given large amounts of squash several times in the past few weeks and we’re up to our ears in squash.  Fortunately my kids eat spaghetti & meatballs with spaghetti squash (not always, but we made it work the other night).   But I needed something to do with the rest of the spaghetti squash and I thought I’d take my ground turkey, a little salsa, stuff it and bake it.  And it was everything I dreamed it would be and more!  My husband approved.  He’s not a squash eater by any means so it wasn’t easy to come up with something…

    Sloppy Joe Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

    There comes a moment when I’m putting together a recipe when I pause and close my eyes and imagine how it’s going to taste when it’s complete.  Not too often do they come out EXACTLY as my tastebuds had envisioned but this was one of those recipes that did.  If I could pick a food to live on for the rest of my life, sweet potatoes might just be it.  Punctured with a fork, wrapped in foil, and baked at 400* for 45 minutes and I’m in potato heaven.  I love carbs, but I digress.  This turkey sloppy joe meat could be served on whole grain rolls as a sandwich,…
