Hi! Are you trying to eat healthy in the new year? If so, I apologize because I haven’t really been helping you out with that. I always try to eat reasonably healthy, but my recent recipes haven’t been exactly diet friendly. Since eating is my favorite thing to do, you can imagine how much I like dieting!

In support of those of you who are trying to shed holiday pounds, I tried to include a few healthy dinner ideas in today’s menu. (And then there are beef enchiladas. Sorry!)  I think you are going to be very happy when you see this week’s lineup of easy dinner ideas. Let’s get to it!

  1. NEW: Slow Cooker Shredded Beef Enchiladas – Before we get to anything healthy, let’s just get these enchiladas out of the way. They are SO GOOD that they are worth blowing your diet! (Easy too!)These delicious enchiladas are made easy with 2-ingredient slow cooker shredded beef!

Thanks, Meg! I first had etouffee when my mother-in-law made it. Even though I grew up near New Orleans, I always had gumbo instead of etouffee. Glad I finally tried it :)
