Garlic chicken

No picture, sorry, but we JUST ate this for dinner and my whole family loved it!
4 chicken breasts pounded thin or just buy them thin.
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup melted butter
garlic cheese spread (near cheese, butter or sour cream section in a tub)
mix bread crumbs and Parmesan
dip chicken into butter then Parmesan/bread crumb mixture. Place heaping spoonful of garlic cheese spread on top and roll (I secured mine with a toothpick). Place in a 8x8 pan. Drizzle remaining butter over chicken and bake at 350 for about 45 minutes.

Taco Meat

Yum! Lately I have been changing my taco meat up a little bit. This recipe makes a lot and is great for a larger crowd but still only uses 1 lb of hamburger meat.

1 tsp oil
2 peppers (green, red.. whatever)
3 garlic cloves
2 Tbsp tomato paste
2 tsp chili powder
1 1/2 tsp cumin
salt, pepper
1 lb ground beef
saute peppers and onion in oil for about 3-5 minutes. Add 1 cup water and boil until water is dissolved. add spices, garlic and ground beef. cook until meat is crumbly and brown. Serve with your favorite taco toppings.
