Tortilla and Cheddar Topped Beef, Bean and Bacon Casserole
Like many parents, I am always on the lookout for ways to help out at my kids’ school, without, well, doing things that I hate the idea of doing. For example, some parents don’t mind working with accounting, and they end up holding the position of treasurer in their PTG or PTO. Bless those people…

Black Rice Curried Meatloaf with Green Grape Chutney
I have been on a tear lately with recipes found online. I’ve (temporarily of course) left my cookbooks behind! Too bad you cannot submit more than once a week to Bookmarked Recipes… I tend to go in spurts like this. It happens. Anyway, I made a note of this recipe as soon as I saw…
