This should be gag worthy but I am going to do it anyway simply because THAT'S what I do.
I want to use up some food.
I have some ground beef I have been wanting to use to make some hamburgers, but the rain has been relentless so that's not in the cards. I COULD just cook them on the stove, but I prefer them on the grill.
I have some tortillas I need to use up. I will brown the ground beef with some seasonings and onions, some black olives and onions and some tomato I have leftover from some taco salad bowls we made.
I will put that mixture into those tortillas and roll them up. Then a bit of swiss cheese will go in them.
I will pour Manwich sauce on top of that. Sort of like a leftover beef/taco/Sloppy Joe enchilada if you want to call it that.
I'll keep the toilet lid up in case either my wife or I need to make a quick dash to throw up tonight.
What's for dinner tonight for you?

@porwest have you ever done casseroles similarily?

I like Monterey Is k, Muenster, and cheddar better than Swiss.

Fresh food, that is what I will eat. I stopped on my way home from work and got a pound of pulled pork and baked beans. I will make mac and cheese to go with.
I liked the sound of your dinner till you got to the sloppy joe sauce, that made it nasty.

@Aquitaine24 I'm just kidding. It actually sounds pretty good and I do like sloppy joes...

I should have some Manwich soon. We used to have sloppy Joes all the time.

@Aquitaine24 We had it from time to time for sure. I think I liked them more when I was a kid for whatever reason.

I think that sounds pretty good, actually. We finally got enough of a break in the rain to grill some steaks yesterday, but it's pouring again today.

Like you, I am also not feeling good with leftover food in the fridge. The last time we had spaghetti was last week. It was a lot that I had to give some to the neighbors. It is better than having so many leftover that we couldn't eat.

I did survive, and I might have wound up being as happy as that pig. lol. I think people have a hard time wrapping their head around certain combinations. This one, when you break it down, is basically just a sloppy joe wrap from what I can tell.

Doesn't sound bad. Chicaa may even pass this one. I had a PB&J sandwich.

That sounds okay to me except for ht excess salt in the sauce.
