Pasta Carbonara with a tossed salad is real quick

* 1/2 pound bacon, cut into small pieces
* 4 eggs, room temperature
* 1/4 cup heavy cream at room temperature
* 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 16 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
* 1/4 cup butter, softened
* 1/4 cup chopped parsley
* ground black pepper to taste

1. Cook bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
2. In medium bowl beat together eggs and cream just until blended. Stir in cheese and set aside.
3. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and return to pan. Toss with butter until it is melted. Add bacon and cheese mixture and toss gently until mixed.

Beef and bean casserole-about 20 minutes total
*This recipe is so easy, my 9 year old can make it all by herself, with a little help chopping the veggies*

1 lb ground beef
1 bell pepper any color, chopped
1 small chopped onion
1-2 cups salsa
1 small can Bush's Baked Beans
Tortilla chips
Shredded cheese

Brown the ground beef with the onions and peppers. Drain ground beef. Add salsa and beans and mix. Top with chips and cheese.

In the original recipe, you were supposed to put beef, salsa, and beans in casserole dish, put in oven for 20 min and then put chips and cheese on top and bake again for 5 minutes. But then it doesn't reheat well because the chips get soggy. Pop the casserole in the microwave to heat up before you top with the chips and cheese. You don't need to bake the casserole because the ground beef is the only thing that needs to be cooked before eating.
 
I make a one pot dish that if pretty quick. I take chicken tenders and dice them. I then cook the pieces and add in some diced onions for about two minutes. I then add 2 tsp taco seasoning I can of cream of chicken or mushroom soup and 1 cup of minute rice and little bit of water. Cook until rice is tender. You can also add a can of mushrooms and a half a can of corn and this is a one skillet meal.
