January 21st – Great Outdoors

by annemariedemyen, posted in Canadian Meal Options

It has been a beautiful day so far.  We are in the single minus digits – Celcius, the sun is shining, and the wind is tolerable – so far.  Kat and I went outside to feed the squirrels and birds.  It was pleasant enough that I even shovelled a little snow. 👍☃️

Kat is recovering nicely from her dental surgery.  She had her last dose of painkiller this morning so other than being on a soft food diet, she should be her old self tomorrow.  She is still not super happy with me but she will definitely appreciate her dental healthcare at some point – when she can gnaw through her food without pain.

Last night, I finally got in the kitchen and made a real home cooked meal.  Okay… There was limited cooking involved as I made taco salads.

Turning tortilla shells into salad bowls – brush shells with olive oil, press between two salad bowl molds, cook at 350 degrees for six minutes, flip over and remove bottom pan, return to oven until crispy…
Remove salad bowls from oven
Brown the beef & Add Old El Paso Taco Seasoning
Prepare lettuce, red pepper, green onions, radishes, tomato, and olives. Assemble cheese & salad dressing.
Supper is served! (The salad part is under the meat and cheese)
And for desert – Presidents Choice Chocolate Caramel Pecan Cluster cheesecake 😁

That is it for today. Take care and have a great day!
