This is one of my kids' favorite recipes! I could make this five times in a row and they'd never get tired of it. It's easy to make and a real quick, hot meal for those busy nights. I will add cheese on top of these kid-friendly Sloppy Joes or warm the rolls in the oven. I occasionally add mild banana peppers on top for my husband since he is a fan of spicy things.

Beef Enchiladas with Flour Tortillas
A simple, quick, easy beef enchiladas recipe. Ground beef and onion are wrapped in flour tortillas, topped with Cheddar cheese and black olives, then baked. This is also great with leftover chicken, shredded beef, or turkey. Serve with a green salad or beans and rice.
Cinnamon Apple Pie Bars
It has taken me a while to find a good apple bar recipe, but finally, with some different trials, I have found one with a great balance of cinnamon and nutmeg. Not to mention, it is so much easier than apple pie, and I think it tastes better. You can arrange the top crust lattice-style if desired.
Bacon Wrapped Green Beans
Bacon-wrapped green beans sprinkled with a little brown sugar, salt, and pepper and popped in the oven turn plain green beans into something guests will love and kids can't help but gobble up.
