Taco Twist Casserole

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef (I used ground turkey)
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 15 oz (425 g) tomato sauce
¼ cup green pepper, chopped
3 cups corkscrew macaroni, cooked and drained
1 cup cheese, shredded
½ cup sour cream

Directions:
1. Brown beef and drain. Stir in seasoning mix, tomato sauce, and green pepper. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
2. Combine cooked noodles (undercook these a bit), 1/2 cup cheese and sour cream. Place on bottom of 6x10 baking dish.
3. Top with meat mixture and remaining cheese.
4. Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.

I'll admit that we all were a bit skeptical at first, but this was super quick and easy to make. And it was surprisingly good...with lots of leftovers for lunches, which is what makes my hubby happy!

Crustless Ham and Cheese Quiche

Ingredients:
3 Eggs
¼ cup Bisquick
1½ cups milk
Dash of salt and pepper
1 cup chopped ham
1 cup shredded cheese

Directions:
1. Mix eggs, Bisquick, milk, salt and pepper in large bowl with whisk until mixed well.
2. Add remaining ingredients and stir well.
3. Pour into 9 inch greased fluted pie pan. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes. Remove.
4. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

I know it calls for Bisquick, but I know many have that. I also didn't have a fluted pie pan, but it worked just fine with a regular glass one. It was so easy and yummy I couldn't resist posting it!
