Two Tuesday-Two yummy recipes!

As you know I am not against but I am careful with boxed meals. I rather have a home made meal any day. I also am careful with money. 

One of the areas we lose money and might not even realize it,is wasting left overs. I tend to re use food in the fridge as many of my readers know.

First recipe is Twice mashed Taters.

Left over mashed potato
Green onion
Shredded cheese(any kind,I love sharp cheddar)
1/2 milk or more depending on much you have left over
2 TBS butter

Take everything and mix it. Green onion should be chopped pretty small. Sometimes you need to add more depending on how dry the potatoes are. Heat in microwave for 4 mins. Serve.



Second is Grilled Fresh Green Beans

After snapping the ends of the green beans,mix with Italian seasoning,minced onion and a touch of pepper. Place into foil with cut up butter. I used half a stick for two packets.(what I call the foil with green beans in it) This is a recipe though you could do anything with. Other seasonings.Italian dressing. Olive oil. Add garlic cloves. 

We double wrap then place on the top portion of the grill not directly on the heat but either is fine. Cook for about 25-30 mins. Take off and serve.
