Do you ever get in a recipe rut? I do, but that’s mainly because I could eat tacos five nights a week. Okay, it’s 7 nights a week, but who’s counting? Unfortunately, the children in my household aren’t as enamored with tacos as I am. Clearly, I’ve gone wrong somewhere in their child-rearing.
I ran across 3 intriguing recipes recently. One of them I tried and loved. Two of them I haven’t tried yet, but for mainly legit reasons.
Read on and I’ll justify my inaction…
NIGHT CEREAL: SAVORY QUINOA RECIPE
I use quinoa in my Dave’s Killer Bread CopyCat Recipe, but other than that, I don’t cook with it regularly.
This recipe from Alice and Lois has me thinking I should give it another try.
Plus, I’m a sucker for a pretty picture.

APPLE SPICE MUFFINS WITH BAKED BEANS
Beans in muffins? I can’t believe I typed that. It sounds so weird. Someone needs to try it and tell me if this recipe from TidyMom is for real.
I would do it myself, but there are some ingredients I can’t get in Ireland. Bush’s Honey Baked Beans are one of them. Who’s going to do it? Come on, help a girl out!

This is one recipe from the blog Damn Delicious that I tried and it was that delicious.
This was a fast, easy-to-make meal and an unexpected way to use ground beef. Plus, the ingredient list is small and includes items you most likely have on your shelf. For real.
Even my picky 6-year-old said he really liked this “chicken.” HAHAHAHAHA!
I think you could add some veggies to the recipe if you want to make it a one-pan meal, but you might need to increase the sauce.
Try these recipes and let me know if they made your mouth smile and your belly happy. Or were they just too weird? Do I need to mention the beans in muffins again?
Thanks for stopping by! Here are some other recipes you might enjoy!
