Mexican Monday!

Even though it is Tuesday I am blogging about Mexican Monday (I went to bed at 8:15 last night, that is what happens after a blowout grillout that lasted until 11 pm Sunday night)

So anyone that knows us knows we LOVE Mexican and LOVE LOVE Chipotle!! Bryan found all the recipes at www.chipotlefan.com!! We made the rice, chicken, and grilled peppers and onions just like they do. I dont have any pictures. uhh.

If you like Chipotle too you should definitley try it, it doesnt fill you up as much when you make it at home.

Did anyone watch Jon and Kate plus 8 last night? If so please fill me in :)

Have a good day! I still have 8.5 hours ofwork left, and Bryan isnt even awake yet to text me and keep me from falling asleep ...

I stumbled upon a winner..

Yesterday I Was just in one of those moods where nothing sounded good, I wanted a nap, and was going to scream if I had another stir fry variation for dinner. So i found this online and it was soooo good :) everyone should definitley try it! We even ate dinner out on the porch and got mosquito bites!!! -not as fun

TACO PIE

** I am not one to measure, and I like to just do whatever I think is good at the time... here is the original http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Taco-Pies/Detail.aspx***

I took one pound of ground beef and browned it with hot taco seasoning, some hot sauce, and water. Then i simmered it with a can of tomato with chiles

I cooked my frozen pie crust for about 10 min at 350 before i lined it with refried beans

Then chop a half of a large onion and some red, green, and yellow bell peppers.

Layer meat, shredded cheese, sliced jalapenos, a little HOT salsa, onion/pepper mixture, meat, cheese, sliced jalapenos, salsa, so on...

Top with crumbled tortillas before you put the top crust on.

Bryan also threw some extra cheese on top for good measure lol

Just bake according to the crust instructions. I had to turn the oven on broil after 15 minutes so the top would get crispy and brown.


We topped with shredded lettuce, sour cream, and some jalapeno sauce. Pico de gallo guac would have been very good if we had it..

Next time ill try to remember a picture !!! enjoyy
