Turkey Joes w/ Blue Cheese and Kicked Up Spicy Chili Beans

Today’s Menu: Turkey Joes w/ Blue Cheese and Kicked Up Spicy Chili Beans



Hot, Healthy, and some great leftovers! I used Jennie – O Extra Lean Ground Turkey. While browning the Turkey I seasoned it with McCormick Ground Smoked Cunin, Ground Thyme, McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn. Served on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Sandwich Bun topped with Murray's Mayfield Crumbled Blue Cheese. The full recipe follows at the end of the post. As a side I had Kicked Up Spicy Chili Beans, this recipe also follows at the end of the post, and a 1/2 serving of some Bob Evans Glazed Apples that I had left over. For my Beans I used Joan of Arc Spicy Chili Beans. The good part there’s plenty left for some great leftovers! For dessert/snack later a bag of Jolly Time Mini Bag of Pop Corn.
