Yummy Taco Seasoned Potatoes 

Hannah Lucio

This is one of our family favorite. It is a meatless meal but super easy to mix it up and put meat on it. This is actually a pretty healthy meal and everyone loves it. And it is really inexpensive.


Ingredients: 

3-4 large Potatoes

3 Tbps Taco Seasoning

1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil

1 can Black Beans

1 Avocado 
Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Cut potatoes into little chunks. It doesn’t really matter which shape. I mix it up regularly . 

Put the Potatoes into a bowl and add the olive oil. Mix until all coated. 

Add the Taco seasoning and mix until all coated. 

Put into a greased baking pan, this time I used our cast iron skillet. Put in the oven for 20 minutes and test to see if the Potatoes are soft/cooked. They normally take 40 minutes total but I do not like to over cook them. After the 20 minute mark I will check on them about every 10 minutes. 

Once they are done, put them into a bowl or plate. Add black beans and top with avocado. 


I make many variations of this. You can add cooked ground turkey, shredded cheese and salsa. Making the Potatoes is just the base to so many different meals. 
I hope you get to enjoy them as much as we do!

Irish Egg Rolls and Guinness Dipping Sauce

Hannah Lucio

Just in time for St. Patty’s Day! When I was searching for an appetizer to make for my husbands work I came across this recipe. It sounded good so we tried it. Oh My goodness…they are so delicious. The hubby said these should be a tradition, amen to that! I hope you try this recipe out and love them as much as we do.

Ingredients:

8 Ounces Chopped corned beef

2 Cup shredded steamed cabbage  (Steam the cabbage with the cooked corned beef water to add flavor)

2 Cup diced cooked potatoes (Cook the potatoes in corned beef water)

2 Cup shredded carrots (steam in the cooked corned beef water)

1 Cup thinly sliced onion (steam in the cooked corned beef water)

1 Pack of Egg Roll wrappers

Vegetable oil

 

Directions:

  1. Heat the oil up on the stove in a deep pan. I used a cast iron pan.
  2. In a bowl mix all the ingredients together.
  3. Lay the egg roll wrappers out on a dry and clean surface one at a time. Dip your finger in water to the edges of the egg roll wrapper, put in as much of the ingredients as you like. The bigger you make them the more likely they will rip when you roll them up. Roll the wrapper up according to the directions on the package and wet the edges again.
  4. Fry about 5 at a time if your pan is big enough. Cook until golden brown, the time will vary. Remove from pan and dry on a paper towel.
