http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/debs-mexican-pasta-w-veggies.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Monday, July 13, 2009. Deb's Mexican Pasta w/ Veggies. I was going to make myself some Penne today in the more or less Italian style (translate that to Ragu). I had pulled out a roll of ground turkey that I THOUGHT was Italian seasoned. It turned out to be taco seasoned so I decided to experiment and here it is. Mexican Pasta w/ Veggies. Box of whole wheat pasta - I used Penne but any whole wheat pasta should work. 1 can Nacho Cheese soup (non-negotiable). Please Visi...

http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Tuesday, January 26, 2010. High Fiber Taco Filling. This recipe makes a lot. You can freeze up part of it to use later saving you a lot of time on a night you may be rushed to get dinner on the table. Both the beans and the brown rice are full of fiber and other nutrients making this a tasty and nutritious meal. 1 lb ground beef or turkey. 1 can or 1 1/2 to 2 cups cooked red beans (drain but retain the liquid, add water to make 1 1/2 cups). 1 cup cooked brown rice.

Deb Cooks: Freezing Onions and Peppers
http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2008/07/freezing-onions-and-peppers.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Saturday, July 5, 2008. Freezing Onions and Peppers. Doing it this way keeps them from sticking together in one big clump so you can remove the quantity needed. The procedure is fairly simple:. 1 Peel onions and clean and seed the peppers. 2 Slice or dice them as you would for different recipes. 3 Spread out on a cookie sheet. 4 Place in freezer until frozen. 5 Then place in bag or container and return to freezer until needed.

Deb Cooks: Tired of Boring Green Beans?
http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2008/07/tired-of-boring-green-beans.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Tuesday, July 8, 2008. Tired of Boring Green Beans? One of the things that seems really popular among my clients is to pour bacon grease and crumbled bacon over their green beans. This makes the health conscious part of me cringe. However, bacon bits or crumbles without the bacon grease works very nicely. Here's some other quick and easy ideas to add some interest to your beans. Add some mushrooms, peppers, water chestnuts, green onions and/or chopped onion.

Deb Cooks: Sauteed Zucchini
http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/sauted-zucchini.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Friday, July 3, 2009. I took this to a pot luck the other night and it got rave reviews. I'm growing my own veggies and most of the ingredients came from my patio garden. It's really easy and flexible. I'm going to scale it down because your not generally going to want to feed ten or more people! 1 small to medium zucchini. 1 or 2 green onions sliced. Small amount of sweet peppers any color. Two tbsp of chopped fresh parsley. Posted by Deb Upcycles.

Deb Cooks: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme
http://debcooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/parsley-sage-rosemary-and-thyme.html
Eating Healthy in a Fast Food World. Monday, July 13, 2009. Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme. OK, so I don't much care for rosemary but I do have the first two and more! Just remember that it usually takes twice as much "fresh" as it does dried. Don't forget to compensate for the water although in most recipes it will be so minimal as to not make a difference.
