PORK & BEANS & CHEESE OPEN FACE SANDWICHES

Steps:

OPEN FACE MEXICAN SLOPPY JOES OVER CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Vegetables -- In a large saute pan, add the oil and bring to medium heat. Saute the celery, garlic, onion and green pepper until lightly sauteed.
• The turkey -- once the vegetables are soft, add the turkey inches Saute until golden brown and vegetables are soft.
• Add the tomatoes, sauce, and paste, seasoning, Worcestershire, salt and pepper to taste. And just let simmer 30-40 minutes.
• Cornbread -- Mix the cornbread mix, the milk and eggs according to the box directions. Add the green chilies (lightly drained, I keep a little juice), seasoning and cheese. Bake according to directions. I like to use a 13x9" pan.
• Cut the cornbread into squares and then serve Sloppy Joe sauce over the top. Garnish with grated cheese and scallions.
• I love to serve with this with coleslaw or black beans or a simple green salad.

APPLE TURKEY FINGERS (FOR OLDER INFANTS & TODDLERS)

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Place ground turkey in a large mixing bowl.
• In a food processor or by hand, grate the carrot, apple, garlic & onion, or else mince very finely (I grated the carrots using a microplane, but minced the apple, onion and garlic for texture). Add to bowl with turkey.
• Add the 1/2 beaten egg (or whole egg for older kids), bran, thyme and any seasonings you wish. Mix all ingredients together.
• Scoop mixture up about 1/4 cup at a time (size of a large meatball) and roll into little sausage shapes, placing on a broiling pan or cookie sheet as you go (you may need to do two pans worth). Wet your hands periodically if it's sticky.
• Place in broiler and broil for 10-15 minutes on one side, then turn over and broil 5-10 minutes more.
• Remove and let cool. Store together in a freezer bag or individually wrapped in foil.
• Enjoy!
