Chicken tacos

    I grew up with your traditional beef taco on my dinner plate. My mom would cook up the ground beef, add some spices and then set aside some fixings so my brothers and I could make our tacos how we like them.
    I'm all for tacos, and I really wanted to try this chicken taco recipe.


Ingredients
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    1/2 cup of seasoned bread crumbs
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/8 tsp pepper
    4 chicken tenderloins
    1 tbs canola oil
    4 corn tortillas
    whatever toppings you want


Directions
    Place egg in one shallow bowl and bread crumbs, salt and pepper in a second one.
    Drag chicken through egg and then crumb mix.
    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in oil for 5-7 minutes
    Serve on tortillas and whatever ingredients you want.

Changes I made!  
     I went with a flour tortilla instead of corn. Just put the tortillas in the oven to cook up a little bit.
    Also, the chicken alone, works as a great chicken tender, so you don't need to throw it in a taco shell if you don't want to.

This recipe is from Taste of Home.

Baked Potato Soup

   Baked potato soup is one of the first soups I learned how to make, and this recipe is my go to recipe, especially in the middle of winter, because most of the ingredients I have on hand at all times.

Changes I made!    I do not mess with this recipe except what I add on top when I eat. This recipe is from Taste of Home. 

Stuffed portobello

    This is a dish I always heard about, but have never actually had, until I made it myself for this blog.     I love mushrooms, but if there's one thing this recipe introduced to me is a love for white bean puree.    Overall, very good and hearty vegetarian dish.
