Ask me, answer 2
Posted by Alli on November 6, 2007
At the beginning of NaBloPoMo I asked for folks to leave me questions for me to answer as blog posts. I figured as time went on and things got hairy around travel time (I leave for Vegas in about 26 hours!) I could fall back on these questions. And this morning I am greatful.
Eve asked:
“what is your favorite dinner to make?”
Oh… good one.
First, to be honest, I have been using a freezer meal prep service to help me with family meal planning. It cuts down on my grocery shopping (or it should) and the time it takes to make our meals. I love how using My Family Dinners has changed my life- less stress and more good food for my family.
But if I were to make a meal from scratch, I love to make chicken tortillas. I make the tortillas from a mix, using my tortilla maker and the rest is super easy. Begin making rice. Cook chicken in a big skillet and cut into strips. Put chicken back into skillet add rice, black beans, corn, and an envelope of taco seasoning. While mixture is warming, make tortillas. Once complete just pile the mixture into the tortillas, add toppings of choice. We usually have salsa and grated cheese. I like to add sour cream, but have to hold back because “spoiled dairy products” (as my husband calls them) are a migraine trigger for me.
The homemade tortillas really do wonders for the meal. It takes more effort, but I enjoy doing it. And as a bonus, Fuller helps with making the dough balls.
Any other questions? I would love to answer them!
