Are you looking for a light alternative to mayo-rich chicken salads?  Look no further than this yummy recipe that I got from a friend.  This recipe is also a good way to make leftover chicken or pork disappear.

MMMmonday - Smokey Joes (Guest Post)

Real life has kept me pretty busy and I haven't been cooking anything new or fun in my kitchen so I asked one of my blogging friends, Danielle from Simmworks Family Blog to share one of her yummy creations!


Over the past few years I've tried a few recipes for sloppy joes but none seem to make the cut. They're either not flavorful enough, too tomato flavored, or just not right in some way. Well, I've finally found the perfect sloppy joe recipe and couldn't be happier. I use ground turkey instead of ground beef to lighten up this meal but feel free to use whatever meat your family prefers. 


This recipe is perfect for those days where you need a quick dinner and is ready in under 30 minutes. There isn't a lot of work or preparation involved and is a great weeknight addition to any family menu. Paired with veggies or a fresh salad and it's a healthy and complete meal any kid would love.

MMMmonday - Turkey Soup and Linky

You can use more or less of the stock.  It all depends on the consistency you desire.  Some people prefer a thicker stew-like
consistency.

Turkey and Vegetable Noodle Soup

1 1/2 pounds leftover turkey or cooked chicken - you can also substitute ground turkey, chicken or beef and saute it with the onions and garlic
yellow onions (peeled and coarsely chopped)
1 to 3 garlic cloves (to taste, peeled and pressed)
3 quarts chicken or turkey stock (or vegetable stock or water)
12 ounces dry egg noodles
2 cups fresh or frozen corn
2 cups seeded and diced tomatoes
tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
Parmesan cheese (for serving)

Saute the onions and garlic in a 5- to 6-quart heavy soup pot over medium heat until the onions are translucent.   Add the turkey, stock,
egg noodles, corn, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, and then cover cook the soup for 25 to 30 minutes, until noodles are cooked. Equally divide the soup among 6 to 10 soup bowls.  Sprinkle some parmesan cheese over the soup, and then serve immediately. Serves 6 to 10.
