Cowboy Recipes

Serve this black bean salsa known as cowboy caviar at your next potluck.

My mom would always make this with ground beef growing up, but I discovered that not only is turkey healthier, its cheaper!

"This is kinda interestin' to fix, but a lot more interestin' to eat."

It’s comfort food on a fork. I've made it two times in 3 weeks. Think shepherd's pieish, with a wicked twist. A delicious mix of hamburger, cheese and corn sandwiched in between a layer of crunchy tots.

A great vegan dish for your next BBQ.

Potassium packed protein beans

A variant on the weight losing cabbage soup - just way more fulfilling. Uses finely diced cabbage and celery as the bulk cellulose fibre filler with chunky cut mushrooms as a good meat replacement, with red kidney beans to give it the real chilli taste. Only 264 cals per serve!

Traditional cowboy caviar (bean-based appetizer) with moderately spicy pepperoncini, but no oil

Comfort food on a fork

The incredible taste of the Trader Joe Salsa called Cowboy Caviar in the middle of this omelet make it incredibly satisfying with no cheese! (even hubby said so! :) )

Slow cooker delicious cowboy beans

some of the best dadgum cookies around. I sometimes substitute white chocolate chips for semi-sweet. Can also add 1 c. chopped pecans.

Using H-E-B's fresh made pico de gallo really makes this a "dump" recipe - no chopping, just dump it all in a bowl for a bold side with salad, meat or as a snack with chips....or by itself!

"single" serving recipe so the other half of canned ingredients can go into chili! :)

HEARTY AND DELICIOUS!! A BIT OF MEXICAN FLAVORED SPICE.

This doesn't taste like Burger King's rodeo burger, but it certainly is inspired by it. I love cheese and BBQ sauce on beef, chicken and pretty much anything. But as I was trying eat healthier I had to find new ways to incorporate this. This is a great main dish for picky eaters as there aren't any veggies in it, but you can easily add some diced tomatoes, chopped onions to it to add some more nutrients and flavor. The recipe despite being lengthy is actually very simple and can be done in 45 minutes total time. I was just very detailed.

This pairs great with a steamed vegetable like green beans, broccoli, peas, asparagus and/corn. I also serve it with light garlic bread.

Also goes well on a bun for a hearty sandwich.

Lots of flavor, we love to eat this over sticky white rice. But I substitute it for baked beans and serve it with grilled items, especially fish.

A tater tot casserole

Great recipe, my kids just love this casserole. We have also made this in a dutch oven over the campfire. Full of fiber and protein.

This is a tried and true recipe from "Everyday Dutch Oven".

Use a 12 inch dutch oven lined with parchment paper. It takes about 30 minutes to bake with 10 coals in a ring around the bottom and about 20 on top. Rotate the oven halfway through and check to make sure the cake isn't browning too quickly and move a few coals from the center of the lid to the outside during the last 5 minutes of cooking time.

This is an easy coffee cake and definitely a big hit with the family. My daughter loves to surprise me by making this for breakfast so I thought I would share it with you all! Enjoy!!!

Kid friendly recipe, with biscuits on top!

similar to a tortilla but made with yeast
