3. Ham and Split Pea Soup
Slightly sweet, somewhat salty, and subtly smoky, the flavor of ham simmered with onion, bay leaf, celery, garlic, and split peas makes this hearty soup ideal for a cold winter’s day.

7. Mexican Beef Loaf
This meatloaf combines the zip of tomatoes with green chiles, ground beef, and the kick of Mexican spices, and it’s all topped with shredded Mexican cheese. Ole! Mild spice.

9. Beef and Bean Burrito or Bowl
Mexican-flavored lean ground beef, naturally low-sodium home-made pinto beans, with sweet peas, onions, garlic, cheddar cheese, and mild Mexican spices served in a 100% whole wheat tortilla. (Available in a vegetarian version.)
