What? No Beans??

Are you a chili fan? I know that my family and I certainly are. We can eat chili any time of the year and by that, I mean during the Dog Days of summer. Chili is just one of those go-to foods that you make when you don’t know what else to make. I typically have all of the ingredients for chili in my freezer and pantry, at all times. I love making meals that do not require me to go to the grocery store. This chili is a different kind of chili in that it is Texas-themed.

For those of you who do not quite understand what a Texas bowl of chili looks like well, it does not contain any beans. I know, I know, I was shocked and amazed myself. I thought, “Now, how on earth can a beanless chili taste good?!”

Well, folks, it does taste good. With all of the other yummy ingredients mixed into this chili, you don’t even notice the absence of the beans. So, make this chili and enjoy!

Quick Tip: If you find that you made the chili a tad too spicy simply add a few tablespoons of honey to the mix to balance the bite a bit.

I love lasagna. It reminds me of the birthday parties when my mom had no idea what to serve the hungry crowd so she would either cater or make her own lasagna. She always said it was cheap to make or buy and easy to serve and totally filling. She did not need to buy sides (unless she really wanted garlic bread) and did not need to buy special plates for this. Regular ol’ paper plates would do and really made her life easier.

After some time of making regular lasagna, she tried her luck at other varieties. For a while she was making a plantain lasagna which I must admit, was absolutely delicious. That lasagna was layers of fried plantains, white cheese and ground beef. Man, was it good! After a stint making that, she tried a new kind: Mexican lasagna. This was a delicious, hearty and filling meal of layers of Mexican goodness which turned into what seemed like a lasagna. I will admit, it was probably even better than the classic one she used to make. Loaded with cheese, nachos, ground beef, veggies, queso dip and more, you really cannot go wrong with it. This was the dish I have always wanted but never knew about!

Don’t let the name of this recipe fool you. Trailer Park cheeseburger wraps are amazing! Have you ever had a snack wrap at McDonalds? That’s exactly what these little “sandwiches” are like. Every ingredient in these wraps are affordable and will save you a bundle on your grocery bill. I like the fact that you can make a bunch of these wraps and feed a crowd. My kids really like them and so does my husband. I guess you could say that this recipe is a real winner!

My family enjoys dipping their trailer park cheeseburger wraps in various sauces like mustard, ketchup, Ranch dressing, and BBQ sauce. Use what you like as this recipe is very versatile.
