Monday Munchies: Panchos

Today, I have one of my Dad's favorite recipes, something similar to a food from Taco Bell but with a different name.

This is actually very simple to make, with just a little cooking and some assembly. You will need these ingredients:

1 pound ground meat
1 envelope (about 1oz) of taco spice
16 ounce can refried beans
9 ounce bag Fritos or tortilla chips
16 ounce jar of Ragu double cheddar cheese sauce
1 pint sour cream
1 small can of sliced black olives, drained
3 green onions, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped

The toppings, such as sour cream, olives, green onion, or tomato are all optional and can easily be removed from each individual's dish. The first step is to prepare the meat:

When the meat is browned:

Now you are half done, time to assemble!

And there it is! A simple recipe that isn't too hard to make and tastes great!

I hope you try this recipe and enjoy it, and feel free to leave a comment below or on Facebook.

Monday Meatloaf

So, on Saturday I gave you a simple baked potato recipe that goes great with a lot of dishes. One recipe that we tried it with was Alton's meatloaf recipe. Click the image to enlarge. There are so many types of meatloaf recipes out there, handed down from generations, that there is no "right way" to make a meatloaf. This is the recipe Alton Brown gave in his cooking guide in the roasting section. Here are the ingredients you will need:

With Apologies to Robert Frost

I have a class for school called Speech. This is supposed to help me learn how to stand properly while speaking, pronounce words properly, and so on. The most recent section is on how to give meaning and feeling to a poem when reading one out loud. My teacher, Mrs. Autrey, has been reciting poems to us as examples, and she uses a variety such as happy poems, sad poems, thoughtful and so on. One of them that caught my attention was a funny remake of the famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost. The original is one of my favorite poems, and I have always loved the other poetic works of Robert Frost. Here is the original poem: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with sn...

CBP Prohibited and Restricted Items

Recently we went to a Back to School festival near to us. At the event, they had a car show, snacks, booths for school children to get supplies , and also booths from the local police and border protection agencies. One of the booths, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, had a variety of unique items on display, including gem-covered beetles, vials of weevils in food products, leather from a sea turtle and elephant, and a bird claw. The officer on the right talked about all the items on display. Click to enlarge. What do all these items have in common? Well, we learned from one of the officers at the booth that these were all illegal items to try to bring over the border. Lets start with the gem-covered beetle. This is not the beetle the officer had on display, but simply an example. While this may look like a harmless product, it is actually quite cruel. That is because the beetle is captured while still alive and has the jewels pasted to its back before being put on sa...
