Try it, basically she made taco filling and we dumped it on a baked tater along with "stuff" sour cream, salsa, etc.

Picked up some Carnita chunks at a little place. Shreded and mixed with a mild home made salsa. Should go well with tacos, burritos, etc.
Fast n easy, kinda like my first prom date.

When cooking for one, I use a lot of adaptable frozen dinners as a base (like an anorexic could live on those things without adding something). Grab some goodies from the garden and some sausage or chicken and toss it together in a big bowl and call it good.

Well summer is here in the Central Valley of Califas. Looking for light meals that are consumable in the triple digits of heat. Yesterday we had 104 degrees, over cast, and a few drops of rain. This ain't right. Tacos and other light weight stuff.
I always have some type of pasta kicking around. Cook it let it cool while slicing olives, sun dried tomatoes, broccoli, use your imagination, then drizzle with olive oil and some grated parmesan cheese. Have even added some sausage.
I often do the same but I like to toss the other ingredients in the wok and heat it up. Then add the pasta and toss everything together.

August UGGH. Back to hunting down new ideas. Burned out on mesican stuff. Did frozen pizza last night. Poultry is starting to taste bland no matter what spices. Back on work comp for the second time this year. Damn 10-15's.

This is the time of year when we go out to the garden and make dinner based on what is ready to eat.
The other night I made a hash out of taters, tomatoes, fresh onions, eggplant and fresh garlic. All with a generous helping of curry powder and ginger.
Curry powder is awesome and you can freeze ginger. I keep a hand of ginger in the freezer, when I need some I just use the micro-plane to shave of a couple of tablespoons. Not quite as good as fresh but pretty darned close.
You can combine chicken, taters, frozen mixed veggies and ginger, finish with some canned coconut milk to make a Thi style great dinner.

Sounds good Rusty right up to "Curry", I can't take the smell. Our garden has been dead for over a month now.
Give me a couple of months, right now it's just chilies and herbs.
Rusty, are you growing ginger? If so, please elaborate. I've tried planting ginger root but no luck.

No, but it is grown locally so I might give it a try.
Post up if you have any success. I'm curious if the greens are good eating.
