Like my new background?

Found this wonderful website when I was lurking at Monkeybox. If you are looking for a really beautiful background for you blog, you might want to check it out.


Speaking of finding something.....

Have you seen this magazine in your store yet? If you like her show then you will LOVE her magazine. She has some very good ideas. The magazine above is her premier issue and I am hoping that they keep up with the same format. Very few ads, LOTS of great recipes and the pictures are beautiful. And it is not only recipes - crafts, 'tablescapes" and other great bits of info. I originaly bought the magazine because she demonstrated a recipe on the "Today" show for a Burrito Casserole that looked super easy and tasty and loved everything else that I saw.

Here is the Burrito Casserole

1 (32 Ounce) pkg beed and bean burritos
1 (14 ounce) can mild enchilada sauce
1 1/2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
1 1/2 cups diced tomato
4 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

Line burritos in a single layer in a 13 X 9 microwave dish and microwave on high for 6-8 mins or until heated through.

Pour enchilada sauce over the burritos. Sprinkle cheese over enchilada sauce. Microwave for 1 - 2 mins or until cheese is melted. Spread olives, tomatoes and lettuce evenly over burritos. Serve immediately.

Makes 6-8 servings

What a super easy meal to make when you are short on time or don't want to heat up the house during the warmer months.

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Something YUMMY to try!!

Pecan Carmel Candies - SOOO easy and very tasty too.

63 minature Pretzels
1 pkg (13 ounces) of Rolo Candies
63 Pecan Halves

Line baking sheet with foil. Place pretzels on foil. Top each prezel with a candy. Bake at 250 for 4-7 minutes or until cadies are softened (candies will retain their shape). Immediately place a pecan half on each candy and press down so that the candy fills the pretzel. Cool slightly. Refrigerate for 10 mins or until set. Makes 63 candies**

Okay, when I made this, I noticed that my bag did not have 63 Rolos and I only ate 2 before I started making this. Soooooo, if your bag does not have 63 rolos, you will not have 63 candies. Just wanted to clear that up!

Anyway, these barely had time to come out of the Fridge before most of them were gobbled up by the family. I guess that would mean that they are kinda good, Huh?

Well, I am still hitting the books. Anatomy/Physiology is hard (who knew) but the other class that I am taking (Cancer Information Mgmt) is rather dry and slightly boring. Just CAN'T get into it.

Anybody in this field that can enlighten me?

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!!
