With avocados on sale and an intense craving for anything spicy, mexican food was the only obvious thing to eat today. Oh, and the fact that the last pepper was looking awfully lonely in the vegetable drawer.
With a freshly stocked fridge full of veggies, I quickly chopped up some onions, carrots, celery, peppers, and zucchini and dumped it into a huge pot to make some taco soup. Open a can of tomatoes, pull the corn outta the freezer, toss some spices in and bam- taco soup here we come.
And what's taco soup without some chips and quac?
Meg, Al and I all ate dinner together which is always great. Sometimes it's rare that we all sit down, pray as a family and eat at the same time, so Sunday nights are a welcomed calm before the storm. It was great to sit and talk about what we want this quarter to look like and hear about their lives. I'm so blessed to have these wonderful girls in my life :)
Week two of "new food a week" is quickly approaching and I am more than ready. This week will feature an ingredient that I am more than curious about, have no idea what it tastes like, and even less of an idea how to make anything out of it. It should be a great adventure...
love love love from the cucina
