Homemade Mac & Cheese with Green Beans

Homemade Mac & Cheese with Green Beans 

    This mac and cheese was just okay, it was kinda bland. I hand grated sharp cheddar but maybe I should of used extra sharp. I had a mac & cheese recipe a few years ago that was amaaaaaazing, I wish I could find it! The green beans were just a steamable bag that I added salt/pepper/garlic seasoning with a splash of lemon juice. Still on the hunt to get a great mac & cheese recipe!

BLT's with Homegrown Tomatoes

 

BLT's with Homegrown Tomatoes

  My husband grew tomatoes this year, and of course they super multiplied and we have tooons of tomatoes. I grew tomatoes 2 years ago and got 1 tiny cherry tomato. Oh well, he's been tending the garden so I like that I get the reward without the work lol. We had BLT's tonight to try and use some up. They had tomatoes, bacon, lettuce, pepperoncini, mayo, onions, dijon, pepper, and cheddar. So more then a BLT but they were amazing!

Salsa Chicken Bowls

 

Salsa Chicken Bowls

The plan was to make this Salsa Chicken Skillet by BudgetBytes, but we had tomatoes from the garden to use so I made something else. I diced the chicken and cooked it according to the recipe, but I didn't make the sauce. I made homemade pico de gallo, and air fried zucchini with S&P at 400 for 10 minutes. The beans were Buch's Southwest Baked Beans with some frozen corn that I warmed in the skillet that I cooked the chicken in. The cheese sauce is just some jarred queso I warmed up. Served over a bed of rice, it was delicious!
