I am a strong believer that healthy eating can also be fun...Sloppy Joes are on the menu for diner today...Here is how I made them healthier but still tasty...
Brown a combo of lean ground beef/lean ground chicken on my George Foreman grill adding only some seasonning and garlic powder..
While the meat was grilling, in a non stick pot I sauteed 4 grated baby carrots, 1/2 cup diced green pepper and 1/2 cup diced onions...Then added the grilled meat(19oz when cooked) and a can of primo basil and romano tomato sauce(1/2 cup=56cals) a little chili powder and then let everything simmer together for a while...Hubby came home and I asked him to taste if it needed extra seasonning and he thought it tasted real good...Soon I will be serving the sloppy joes with a salad of mixed greens tomatoes cucumbers and chickpeas with healthy olive oil and vinegar dressing(a little goes a long way)...
While my hubby and kiddies will be enjoying theirs on regular keiser buns I chose to get whole wheat dinner rolls for mine(2 small ones)
And Voila a fun and tasty meal that meets everyone`s approval....Add a glass of milk and I believe it covers the food groupes for a balanced meal....:D G

Sounds good! I love sloppy joes!
If you like bar-b-q sandwiches, here is something a man at TOPS swears is great (I haven't tried it yet). He adds bar-b-q sauce to tunafish. He says he can't taste the difference in it from other bar-b-q.

I have been to one meeting so far and I throughly enjoyed it. I belong to TOPS# MS 320. I usually feel awkward when I go into a room full of people that I don't know, but not this time. It was so much fun that I had to join. They had so many different things going on that really keep you motivated. I'm looking forward to our next meeting.
