Directions
Meat with Taco Seasoning |
Season Meat with Kosher Salt and Black Pepper.
When skillet is hot, add Meat and cook until browned on medium heat.
Add 1/4 cup Water and Seasoning Mix, combine and heat on medium-low until thickened.
Spanish Rice with Chipotle Peppers |
In a large pot, add 2 tablespoons Butter and Rice mixture and brown.
Stir in 2 cups Water, Seasoning packet and instead of Tomatoes, add 1 tablespoon of chopped Chiptole Peppers (with seeds out) and 1 tablespoon of the Chipotle Peppers Adobo Sauce.
Heat to boiling.
Cover and reduce to low heat, cook for 15-20 minutes or until Rice is tender.
Refried Beans |
In a medium size pot, add Refried Beans cover, and heat on low until hot.
Gaucamole, Salsa, Tortilla Chips |
Slice and mash with a fork Avocados and combine well with Gaucamole Mix. Enjoy with Tortilla Chips.
Salsa
Not for the weak. Enjoy with Tortilla Chips. See post Monday for details.
Taco and Tortilla Fixins |
Take Tacos and heat in microwave for about 45 seconds. Do the same for the Flour Tortillas.
One of my Tacos, yum! |
Set up all your fixins (Sour Cream, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Olives, Green Chiles, Cheese, Salsa, Gaucamole) for the Tacos and Tortillas in a line or in a Taco Organizer (as shown) and make your Tacos and Tortillas. For space reasons and to keep it hot, I left the Rice, Meat and Refried Beans on the stovetop.
Enjoy leftovers the next day for lunch. :)
