Too Hot to Cook!!

Hi.  Tonight, it was too hot to cook!  I didn't plan well enough for us to be able to grill out.  So I made this great, very fast meal, in less than 1/2 hour.

Sloppy Joes

1 lb. 93% ground beef
1/2 pint homemade canned salsa
2 tsp. Splenda
4 Tbsp. Ketchup (would have used canned tomato sauce if I had some, but had to substitute)

Brown the ground beef in the microwave, cooking 4 minutes at a time and crumbling as you go.  Cook by the minute towards it getting cooked through so you don't overcook.  When done, add the other ingredients while it is still hot and stir.

Then we also had my microwave potatoes that I posted earlier.

For our fruit and dessert, all in one:

Baked Apples

2 apples, peeled and cut into slices
sprinkle with splenda and cinnamon

Warm in microwave for 1 minute

My family told me over and over how good supper was!!
No heat in the kitchen and it was all ready in 1/2 hour!
