This is one of my favorite ways of using up extra shredded chicken. It’s so flavorful and quick! It’s been a hit with my family for a long while and I don’t think that’ll change anytime soon. 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil 1 cup Onion; chopped 1 small Jalapeño; cored and chopped 3 cloves Garlic;Continue reading “Smoky Tortilla Soup”

Skillet Taco Pizza
Happy Taco Tuesday! This is one of my all time pizza topping combos! It’s part pizza, part taco and all deliciousness!

Taco Egg Rolls
Southwest Egg Rolls are what’s for dinner! It’s a great way to use up any extra taco meat you have in the fridge. I made a lot so I can freeze some and pop them in my Air Fryer on busy days. Kids LOVE these just as much as adults do and they disappear fast!Continue reading “Taco Egg Rolls”
Copycat Taco Bell Fiesta Chicken Taco Salad
Still mourning Taco Bell’s Fiesta Taco Salad. I added some things that don’t normally come with it and I baked the chicken in my toaster oven so I wasn’t babysitting my griddle. You can air fry the tortilla bowl too. Or you can do what I did and give yourself a second degree burn. Chicken:Continue reading “Copycat Taco Bell Fiesta Chicken Taco Salad”
Frito Taco Salad
This is such a great weeknight meal. It’s quick, cheap and so delicious! For a lighter option try ground turkey. This is also a great way of hiding vegetables from finicky kids and adults alike! Taco Meat: 2 lbs Ground Beef 2 cups Yellow Squash; cored and minced ⅔ cup Taco Seasoning or: 2 TablespoonsContinue reading “Frito Taco Salad”
Smothered Southwestern Chicken Skillet
I had some leftover corn, homemade black beans and Mexican rice from the other night, so I tossed them all together. Cooking it all in one skillet means less dishes to clean which is just fine by me. It would have been better with cream cheese, but all of mine is frozen. What’s a girlContinue reading “Smothered Southwestern Chicken Skillet”
Homemade Black Beans
There is no price comparison when it comes to canned black beans and homemade. They’re so much richer in flavor and they’re not as hard as you think to make. You can also cook these in an InstaPot or slow cooker, but I prefer them on the stovetop. I definitely recommend cooking them with brothContinue reading “Homemade Black Beans”
Black Bean & Chicken Enchiladas
Day 37 of my #PantryChallenge I spent an amazing night with my family yesterday and cooked dinner for them. I brought over most of it from my pantry, but my mom had all the fresh vegetables, cheese (that I forgot at home) and sour cream on hand, so I’m counting it. My dad said theyContinue reading “Black Bean & Chicken Enchiladas”
InstaPot Copycat Chipotle’s Pork Carnitas Tacos
Day 22 of my 8 week #PantryChallenge Am I the only one who drools over Taco Tuesday posts and has to make tacos the next day? I really wanted Chipotle’s Carnitas Tacos. I decided to go on Chipotle’s website and looked up how much 10 tacos would cost. $36.83 was the grand total and that’sContinue reading “InstaPot Copycat Chipotle’s Pork Carnitas Tacos”
Pantry Challenge Beefy Fritos Burritos
Day 20 of my 8 week #PantryChallenge Tonight’s dinner is the most simplified version I could make of the only thing that my brain and stomach seem to agree on at the moment. Beefy Fritos Burritos! Except I didn’t have any Fritos…or Queso… So I cut some corn tortillas into strips and mixed some cheeseContinue reading “Pantry Challenge Beefy Fritos Burritos”
