I am not quite sure what I would do without these peeps as well as the big bowl of chili Sandy Morris made us.
What a rich time! What beautiful food!

Our chili maker’s:
Today with Taco Tuesday!
Instead of the usual hard tacos, I decided to get some rice wraps and try quesadillas.
It was so simple: cast iron frying pan, throw down a rice wrap, cheese, leftover chili and wrap on low heat and voila dinner was on the table. (Here is the chili recipe I made yesterday in the slow cooker.)
To add to the quesadillas while they were heating up, I cut up two avocados and added a bit of salt, paprika and garlic powder and mashed it all together. We also had some sour cream kicking around in the fridge to add on top of the avocado.
We got home from gymnastics at 5:20 and dinner was on the table fifteen minutes later. And it tasted GOOD!
Bon Appetit.
And keep in mind, I ain’t no foodie. Just check out this blog for a real foodie!
How often do you try a new recipe? How about a new recipe without an accompanying photo or taste test?
I must admit that I will almost never try a new recipe where I can’t see a picture of the finished product or I haven’t eaten it. Another look into my perfectionist ways!
Today, I took a recipe from my foodie friend and blogger and I am giving it a go! I have seen photos so I am confident my family will be eating a home cooked meal for dinner rather than takeout pizza.
Chili Monday could become a tradition. This was the easiest slow cooker recipe ever. I made it before we took JC to school at 8:15am so that tells you how easy it is.
Here’s this beautiful chili this morning:
