Five Bean Ground Beef & Noodle Skillet Casserole

It's 5 o'clock and everyone is looking at you like "FEED Me."  You don't have a clue what you're making, because hey, you have your own problems, right?  But you signed on for this mom thing and part of that means keeping them fed.

You have a pound of ground beef, and you go to the pantry for inspiration.  There sits a package of egg noodles, and next to it, a jar of Paisley Farm Five Bean Salad.  That's where this Five Bean Ground Beef & Noodle Skillet Casserole was invented, right in my pantry.

This post was inspired by true events in my kitchen and then sponsored by Paisley Farm Foods.  My opinions and love of their simply delicious products is all my own.

jar of Paisley Farm Five Bean Salad

Paisley Farm Five Bean Salad is full of these nutritious beans: Garbonzo, Wax, Green, Kidney, Pinto Beans – also onions and red peppers.  They have a sweet pickled taste straight from the jar, but that didn't mean they weren't fantastic as an additive to this Five Bean Chicken Chili, or spiced up in this Mexican Bean Salad!

Five Bean Ground Beef & Noodle Skillet Casserole

Back to my crazy Tuesday night, or was it Thursday night? I don't remember for sure, as most weeks all seem to run together at this point.   I grabbed a skillet and started to brown my ground beef with a little minced onion and salt and pepper.  I filled a pot with water to bring to a boil for the noodles.

I drained the Paisley Farm Five Bean Salad and added it and a can of diced tomatoes to the ground beef.

Then it's time to stir in the noodles and of course some cheese. What's a casserole without cheese??

The Importance of Family Dinners

We all know that gathering around the dinner table as a family is beneficial to everyone,  in fact, I talk about it here, a lot.   But in this day and age of busy schedules, family dinners have decreased over 33%.

Statistics show that children communicate better with their parents, are more likely to eat healthy food and maintain a healthy weight, and are even less likely to involve themselves in risky behaviors.

In the days of my grandparents, family meals took an average of one and a half hours, yet today they are done in under 15 minutes.  On average, Americans spend around 50% of their food budget of the week dining out.  Sadly, drive-thrus have replaced the family table.  But when you have easy family meals, like this one, with healthy ingredients and hardly any time to prepare them, you can skip the drive-thru and gather around the table at home.
