Summer Recipe & Amy Butler's Cameo!

....Hello Friends!....

 

It's SUMMERTIME in Texas, and we are loving it! One of my all-time favorite summer meals is Taco Salad.    The big bowl I made this week:

Here's the recipe if you'd like to try it!  

I'm sure it's quite similar to many out there, but we absolutely love this one!

TACO SALAD

1 LARGE head of lettuce, chopped

1 can light red kidney beans, washed & drained

2-3 cups shredded cheddar  > in my opinion, you have to put in alot of cheese!

1 package Nacho Cheese Doritos

1 lb ground sirlion + 1 pkg Taco Bell Taco seasoning

about 10 oz thousand island dressing (buy the regular 16 oz size & you'll have plenty!)

1/2 cup sugar

2 Tablespoons medium salsa

Preapre meat & seasoning accoding to package directions.   Prepare sauce by stirring all together in a separate bowl...I let it sit a little so the sugar dissolves.  Toss all together &  add Doritos last.   

TIPS:   only add a few Doritos if you think you'll be saving some of the salad as leftovers (they get soggy & you can always add fresh ones as you go!)  If you don't have enough dressing, just toss a little more thousand island and a bit of sugar together, then add to the salad.

ENJOY!  :o)

Happy weekend, everyone!

FWFS Friday Bundle Batch: My Vintage Kitchen!

...Friday Bundle Batch...

My Vintage Kitchen

THE INSPIRATION:

A red & black color combo was the initial inspiration for this bundle!  Once I saw Michael Miller's Any Cup Will Do, I decided to take this bundle in a slightly vintage direction.   You'll see vintage dishes, checkerboard, and red "speckled enamelware".  (I'm not sure if red enamelware was ever made, but it fit with the theme, so I decided to use it!).   There's a little daisy play going on here, too....black & white daisies and the black PETALS print by Michael Miller!
