Easy Taco Salad Recipe

 Taco salad is a great way to use up whatever veggies have been lingering in your fridge. You could make minute rice to accompany the taco meat & toppings to make this meal even more simple. We tend to make a lot of meals with taco meat, but this one creates a lighter option with the satisfaction of having Mexican food!

See recipe below. Enjoy!


Ingredients: 

1lb ground beef

Taco seasoning

Half onion, chopped

Sour cream

Salsa

Iceberg lettuce

Tortilla chips

Monterey Jack cheese

Mexican cheese blend

Cup brown rice, cooked.

Any other veggies you gave to use up!


Recipe:

Brown ground beef, drain and add taco seasoning.

Cook brown rice. I use a rice cooker for ours, but microwaveable would be good too.

Chop up all veggies you are adding to your salad.

On a plate layer lettuce, taco meat, onion, rice, cheeses, avocado sour cream and salsa. Add chips to the side to crumble on top. 

That’s it! So simple. 

This would be a great meal to serve a crowd if you put together a make your own taco salad bar.

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Banana Bread Recipe

 When it comes to banana bread I prefer less sweet. I've also realized I'm not a fan of adding chocolate chips to my banana bread--the flavors don't blend well to me! This banana bread is just sweet enough and really yummy with blueberries. A tip I've found helpful is to coat your blueberries in a small amount of flour before folding into the batter. It keeps them from sinking to the bottom.  Here is our favorite banana bread recipe! Ingredients: 3 ripe bananas, mashed. 1 cup sugar 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 cup melted butter 1 egg 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 1 cup blueberries or your choice of add-in. Recipe: Preheat oven to 325* and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Mix bananas, sugar, butter and egg in large bowl. Mix flour and baking soda in separate bowl. Add flour mixture to banana mixture and mix until well combined. Add salt and mix well.  If folding in blueberries, add a small amount of flour to berries and then add to bowl, folding until well distributed. Bak...
