It is Mexican Monday!!!!
I hope you all had a great weekend and those of you that are Mothers, had a wonderful day!
Even though it is May, it is a blustery day here in Kansas. I turned my heat back on and I am layered all the way to my knee high socks. Oh yes, I am a sight!
Picture if you will, Me... dressed in knee high blue socks, with navy and grey flannel men's pajama pants, a grey t-shirt and an over sized grey sweat shirt, covered by a floor length baby pink robe...Can you see it???? Yes, it is wonderful isn't it! Pajama Day!
I decided to make taco soup for dinner today, It is warm and soothing and takes about 25 minutes to make it, tops! Taco Soup
Ingredients:
2 cans Chili Beans, undrained
2 cans diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can whole kernel corn, undrained
1 taco seasoning pkt.
Add all ingredients to a large pot. Simmer for about 20 minutes. Serve with sour cream and avocado, or really what ever you like!~
With it I served broccoli corn bread, also super simple.Broccoli corn bread
Ingredients:
1 pkg. vegan corn bread mix
2 tbls. vegan sour cream, I made Alicia's(Vegan Epicurean) tofu sour cream...Delish!
1 cup cooked broccoli, minced
Prepare according to manufacturer's directions, except add in the sour cream and broccoli. Bake fr 20 minutes.
The taco soup really warmed us up, and the cornbread was homey and delicious. Not something I would serve all the time, but it served it's purpose today!!!
I hope all of you are in your pajama's lounging around today!
See you tomorrow!

Brandi,
That sounds good and love how quick it is. Cornbread was perfect with this.
BTW, love the visual or your outfit. Good thing the UPS man didn't come to the door. LOL. I have scared my share of them in my workout gear with my hair in pony tail being a gross sweaty mess. ;-)
talk to you later,
Alicia
Did I mention one pant leg is rolled up! LOL, I didn't even notice till Kaiti got home...and the hair...lets not go there! lol
I love it when my hair is in the growing out period after methotrexate. I cut it short to minimize losing it and then I lose some and when it grows back....and I look like a cross between a punk rocker and a chemo patient...YEESH!
So not HOT!
You must have been quite the sight. Glad you can laugh about it. BTW, as my husband always reminds me, "people pay good money to make their hair look like that." That is his response when I giggle at his hair in the morning. It sounds like is similar to your do. ;-)
talk to you soon,
Ali
Sounds yummy and simple! I'm definitely going to try both of these recipes. Thanks.
I totally failed on Mexican Monday. Drats. this looks sooo good!
Looks so great (must smell yummy too) and filling! Mmmm
It is so chilly over here today and looking at this delicious soup makes me envious - it looks so bright and beautiful, and that cornbread really is enticing!!!
It was cold in St. Louis as well! I didn't crank the heat on but I really wanted to. Now it's 80 degrees...go figure!
Soup and cornbread both look great. Broccoli cornbread is right up my alley.
