Some like it sweet--simple ingredients for a quick dinner

Back from a great 5-day vacation and I am feeling energized again! This week's menu features a few of my favorites, one of which is so simple you can throw it together in 10 minutes, as long as you have a few simple ingredients on hand!

Sweet and sour meatballs with brown rice

Spaghetti and meat sauce with cauliflower

Tex-Mex pie with black bean and corn salsa

Sweet and Sour Meat Balls
Makes 21 meatballs
2 points per piece, including sauce

Ingredients
1 pound 85% lean ground meat
1 jar chili sauce
1 can whole berry cranberry sauce
1 onion, diced

Directions
-Divide meat into 21 equal sized balls.
-In a large sauce pan that has a cover, saute diced onion over medium-high heat.
-Add meat, and saute until meatballs look brown.
-Add chili sauce and cranberry sauce (you will need to break apart the cranberry sauce--it will be really chunky when you add it to the pan).
-Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
-Serve over brown rice (brown rice = 2 points per 1/2 cup).

Healthy meals to nourish your mind.
