beef nachos

Here is an easy one that I make.

Cook a lb of ground beef, strain when done.
Mix with a can of refried beans or homemade refried beans. Warm.Season with mexican seasoning.
Warm tortilla chips in oven.
Melt the type of cheese that you like. I usually just melt cheese whiz, but sometimes use the mexican blends.

I layer on a plate, the chips & meat mixture.
On top of it all- I add chopped onions, jalapenos, sour cream, salsa, cheese.

sandwiches

Here are a few sandwiches that I love, that many people think sound bad. Most of the time when they try them, they do like them.

Banana sandwich:
A small amount of peanut butter spread on the bread. I prefer smooth.
Mayo & sliced banana on bread.

Pineapple sandwich:
Strain the pineapple & put it on the bread with mayo.

Ham & turkey sandwich:
Put meat on the bread with mayo, pepper, & bbq chips.

egg sandwich:
I do love the egg sandwiches with bacon & cheese. I can't get my sons to eat this one but it is better than it sounds.

mayo, ketchup, salt, pepper & scrambled eggs on the bread. This one is usually better with toasted bread.

hot ham & cheese

This morning I made eggs & hot ham & cheese sandwiches. The sandwiches were pretty good & very easy, so I thought that I would add it on here.

I had hamburger buns, butter, thin sliced ham precut to size of buns, provolone cheese, swiss cheese.

I melted 2 tbl butter in microwave & drizzled it lightly on buns that I toasted in the oven. I took about 10 slices of ham for each person & put a quarter of provolone between every 3 slices of ham. In the middle of my stack of ham, I crisscrossed on slice of swiss cheese. Took all of my stacks of ham & cheese, put them in the microwave & cooked until the cheese melted. I put salt on the toasted bread & put each stack of ham & cheese on a bun. This was really fast & easy. Fattening I am sure, but not worse than making bacon & putting cheese in the eggs probably. It tasted a little like Hardees hot ham & cheese but a little better.
