Hey guys!!

So I really love my thick taco soup and I love to dip chips in it, but you can use everything I gave you to do Taco Salad. :)

Taco Salad

In the freezer: beef, taco seasoning, cheese
In the Pantry: olives, kidney beans, chips
U-NEED: sour cream, and lettuce(salad)
Directions: Thaw completely and serve over lettuce and tortilla chips. Top with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole, if desired.

Taco Soup

In Freezer: 1 lb cooked hamburger, 1 c. shredded cheese, 1 packet Taco seasoning
In Pantry: 1 can kidney beans, 16 oz. or (2- 8 oz) cans of tomato sauce, 1 can corn, tortilla chips
On Hand: sour cream, and olives if desired

Combine hamburger, taco seasoning, drained beans, corn & tomato sauce (and olives if you want) in crock pot or in a large pot on stove. Cook in crockpot low 8-10 hours, high 4-5 hours or cook on stove until bubbly.(Watch and see if it's bubbly it's done, might be less time) Serve with chips and sour cream.

Navajo Tacos


Navajo Tacos
In freezer

• 10 Rhodes Rolls
• shredded cheese 1 cup
In pantry

• 1 can of chili
• 1 can refried beans
• 1 lg can black olives sliced
• 1 can corn
• Mexican rice
Have on hand

• sour cream
• salsa
Optional Items

• tomatoes
• lettuce
• green onions
• any other topping of your choice
Let Rhodes rolls thaw and rise for 3-5 hours. Put about 1 inch of oil in the skillet. You want to make sure the scones fry well. Heat oil to med. high heat. While that's warming up, take 2 balls of and flatten out.

You can place 2-3 scones at a time in the frying oil, and turn them once when one side is toasty brown and cook the other side. Don't overcook them or they will be too tough to eat. Take them out and place on a plate; put a new batch in the oil until all dough is gone. (Layer paper towels on the plate in between each layer of cooked scones to soak up the excess oil.)

Top with warmed chili, refried beans, cheese, black olives, corn, sour cream, salsa etc. For dessert, you can spread butter on a warm scone and pour honey or cinnamon and sugar over the top.

Serve Navajo Tacos with Mexican rice provided.
