Are you struggling with finding things to make for supper? Here are a few of my favorite family recipes that I hope you will try.
I have another fantastic and tasty recipe that literally uses some of your favorite ingredients from tacos with a few extras that your family will love. Taco Cornbread Casserole is an easy recipe that you can make in your crockpot which saves you time. So let me tell you this taco cornbread casserole makes my tastebuds happy.
Growing up my mom would make cornbread in a skillet. I loved her cornbread because of the crispy edges that made it extra yummy. I also loved eating cornbread with a little slice of butter but who don’t, right? I have to be honest with you. I have never tasted cornbread and milk. But, I tell you the idea of two of my favorites, tacos, and cornbread makes me happy.
So why not go a step further and add a layer of cornbread to your favorite taco ingredients. The best part about this recipe is you can make it all in the crockpot. The mixture of tacos and cornbread makes my tastebuds happy.
Do you love tacos as much as I do? I think tacos are probably one of my favorite foods to eat. I am not alone because millions of people eat crunchy or soft tacos every day. Just thinking about today’s recipe makes me happy. I want to do the simple and easy taco happy dance.
There are a few differences between Mexican vs a Tex-Mex taco. For example, a Mexican taco involves using a soft corn tortilla, not flour, and topped with fresh cilantro and chopped onions instead of cheese. The Mexican taco is not spicy because you can add salsa to the top. Once you taste it, you will want to do the simple and easy taco happy dance!
Growing up, we didn’t have a Taco place near us. My mom would make homemade tacos. However, we would also have taco soup, taco casserole, taco dip, and taco lasagna. Simple and easy, right! I remember when my grandpa shared the recipe for his Mexican casserole. Since then, I have tweaked the recipe a bit to satisfy my hungry boys.
Today, there are so many yummy taco recipes that are so easy to make. You can pretty make different taco recipes every day of the week.
Taco Dance!
I love pears, especially in a dessert. Pears and apples are definitely in season right now. A neighbor was so nice to share some of her pears from her crop this year. I think you will love the tastes of Fall in this yummy apple-pear crisp recipe. The smells of Fall are amazing.
Pears have so many health benefits. For example, one pear provides 15% of our recommended copper requirement. The antioxidant in pears protects us from Alzheimer’s disease as well as helps keep the immune system strong. We definitely can use that this time of year. The Vitamin K in pears prevents blood clotting and improves blood circulation. For more information on the benefits of pears click on the link.
If you prefer pears without all the added sugars, you can certainly do that or you can bake them in the oven for a little tender pear.
A pear-apple crisp recipe is pretty simple to make. All you need to make this recipe are three pears and three apples, lemon juice, flour, sugar, brown sugar, oats, butter, and cinnamon. You can literally use any crisp recipe that you like. I found an easy one on by celebratingsweets.com on Pinterest and you can check that one out here.
