Some of this week's meals

Slow cooked BBQ beef (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
We had this on rolls with not much else - bit of a rushed meal. It was good but the sauce is quite strong - I'll use fewer ingredients next time and add some water.

Cheesy taco pasta (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
Delicious. It is a small-ish portion, don't know if it would truly feed 6 as the recipe states. We got 4 generous portions out of it - in future I'd probably split it into 5.

Pasta with Italian chicken sausage, peppers and escarole (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
I tweaked it a little: left out the red pepper flakes, added a can of chopped tomatoes to the sausage mixture, and left out the escarole.

Cheeseburger casserole (link to recipe)
(A new-to-us recipe which I will make again.)
I didn't have turkey mince so I used 350g steak mince and the rest turkey sausage meat. I also didn't have low fat evaporated milk or the cheese product - I used grated cheese and low fat sour cream. Everyone except Noah enjoyed this. I found the recipe served 4, not 6 (the portions would have been too small) but maybe that was because I was so hungry by the time it was ready.
