Suzy, your posts about food always make me so very hungry! :lol:

Nothing fancy for our family tonight, just some good old-fashioned tacos made with beef and turkey, topped with sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and fresh guacamole.

Mmmmm, nothing like chicken soup and some veggies.

Yay, tonight I don't have to cook. My husband is grilling angus burgers and sweet potato fries. I will probably throw together a garden salad or maybe serve a side of baked beans.

They certainly are good in the oven. We are taking advantage of the nice weather and busting out the grill tonight. Of course, rain is predicted for the weekend......

I think I am making a chicken and potato bake tonight. Kind of a lazy dinner, but it is so good. I literally throw chicken breasts, red potatoes and a large assortment of vegetables into a baking dish, sprinkle with a spice rub, slice lemons on top and then bake it in the oven. Quick and easy after a busy day of work. Easy clean up and more time for reading. :lol:

Taters can truly make the dish.

I just threw some pork chops into my slow cooker along with some potatoes They will simmer together in a buttery garlic sauce until dinner time.

Simple tonight. Grilled cheese sandwiches with homemade chicken tortilla soup, since it appears that winter is determined to stubbornly stick around.

I love refried beans.
