Recipe for beef taco's

We had salmon w/ general Tao's sauce with potato medley w/ shrimp for tonights dinner.

I made taco's for Sunday's dinner.


1 lb. ground beef
green bell pepper, chopped
small onion, chopped
one can of mild magic chili beans
1/3 cup mild salsa
one taco-seasoning pac
1/4 cup of water mixed into ingredients
I used hard-taco shells
topped off w/ sharp cheddar cheese-grated Cookie :)
 
Today I made more stuffed peppers in the crockpot. Trying to use up the last of them.
I also made Jon teriyaki shrimp. We went to the local chinese restaurant here in town for lunch. They are not even close to the one a few counties over but today they were decent. I was in the mood for wonton soup.
 
I've eaten pre packed rubbish for the last three days. I deserve to turn lumimous green, like toxic waste :)

Today is going to be more sensible

Poached salmon and dill
Fresh tomatoes
Jacket pots.
Hollandaise sauce.
 
Hi, Hope you Enjoy Spice Place. Cookie :)

1 can pitted black olives
1 can of chic-peas
1 small carton of fresh mushrooms
MIX IN-
2 Tbs. of parmesan cheese
1 pkg. southwestern style short-cuts (Perdue) carved Chicken Breast

I Love a Good Salad! Cookie :)
 
Lets see ..I have not cooked much the past fews days. We have been busy so it has been sandwiches alot. I prepared the mixture last night to make homemade ice cream today. I used the milky way ice cream recipe I posted here. It should be divine cause the mixture tasted delish! I also made a dutch apple pie late last night.
 
I like the sound of that ice cream. I am a great fan of ice creams.

Today we had

Breakfast
Brioche and black currant jam
Fresh perked coffee

Lunch
Lincolnshire sausage
Curried baked beans
Bread

For dinner this evening we are having ribeye steak, mushrooms, peas and basted chips.

Probably have coffee ice cream as a pudding, that's if I have room. :D
 
I made lasagna and chocolate caramel apples.
I also made a huge pot of white wine chicken soup to send to my little sis who has a bad cold.
 
Tuesday Night was Pesto Pizza w/ Chicken, Italian Fennel Sausage, Mushrooms, and Artichoke Hearts. Wednesday night? You guessed it- COLD PESTO PIZZA! :) I also have a B-Day Cake to make for a co-worker... she requested Chocolate Cake w/ a Bailey's Irish Creme Frosting I make a lot... so I'll proll'y be lickin' the bowl a lot while decorating the cake, as well!

Here's the recipe for the frosting!

Bailey's Cream Cheese Frosting

1/2 lb. <2 stix> butter
1 lb. <two 8oz. bricks> cream cheese
3/4 c. Bailey's Irish Creme liquer
4 c. powdered sugar

Cream butter and cream cheese together in the bowl of an electric mixer, using the paddle attachment.

Add Bailey's.

Add powdered sugar and mix until perfectly-blended and spreadable consistency. (I add a package of mini chocolate chips before spreading onto the cake- YUMMY! :) )
 
Basically, i love varieties while eating.. i'm a foodie.. and hence, we prefer to have different kinds of dishes for our lunch everyday.
 
Supper tonight was a "doggy-bag" special... went to a steakhouse w/ friends last night and shared a big ol appetizer platter, then had a med-rare ribeye w/ huge salad, rolls, and a loaded baked sweet potato. Didn't touch the sweet 'tater so brought it home and nuked it tonight w/ a couple strips of bacon and a few green beans.
 
I smoked a three pound brisket in the stovetop smoker last night. I had a rub on it for two days and used mesquite chips. Gonna have it today with some balsamic roasted roma tomatoes for a side.
 
Well here we are well into Sept. and we're still under the August thread!:D

We all went out to eat at a local Chinese restaurant, the kids were good and the food was tasty and it was nice just to get out for a change!
 
Today we had smoked brisket with mac and cheese for lunch.
For supper I roasted some large shrimp in the oven I had marinaded in olive oil, garlic, herbs de provence, salt & pepper.
Tomorrow I plan to roast a chicken and Sunday we are doing dinner with the FIL. I am planning to fry cod filets and shrimp. I am also making hush puppies, slaw and onion rings.
 
Janie I love Cod & Shrimp!!!

Tonight we had Hot Wings (ours are the best seasoned I can not stand to eat them anywhere anymore ours are so delicious and falling off the bones tender), Huge Salad, and Garlic Bread

Tomorrow I am making Lobster Thermador. Haven't made this in FOREVER!!!!
