Flank Steak Tacos

We finally made Flank Steak Tacos, and it was a team effort! I worked the Meat, the Heat and the Retreat (also known as a Crema) to give just enough relief from the heat of the sauce. Jennifer took care of the Slaw, which added a flavorful crunch to the tacos. And, the girls served as our sous chefs and were a big help getting dinner done.

Christmas Eve Dinner

We made Bacon-Wrapped Baked Chicken, Roasted Green Beans, Buttery Garlic Mushrooms and a Greek Salad.

Asian Zalad

I fully enjoyed my Asian Zalad and its mini egg roll. In fact, I didn’t even need to add dressing. Then, I made us smoothies for dessert.

Grilled Balsamic Chicken Salad

We brought back a favorite for dinner tonight: Grilled Balsamic Chicken Salad, which featured Fresh Mozzarella Balls and Sliced Avocado. This homemade meal was even better than I remembered!

Quesadilla Explosion Salad

I ordered a Quesadilla Explosion Salad, which was different than I remembered. It was still good, but I thought it had more chips in it. I was impressed with the cheesiness of the quesadilla wedges.

Pickup Mistake

After waiting an hour past the time we were told our pickup order would be ready, the food was just OK. We had a Mediterranean Lover’s Salad, a Pear-Fect Pie, Garlic Knots and Cinna-Knots. The pizza had Evoo, gorgonzola, parmesan, all natural chicken, pears, caramelized onions, balsamic glaze, cracked black pepper. It sounded better than it tasted. Oh well, live and learn. I may not visit another My Pie Pizza if there is another option.

BBQ Pork Sandwich

After spending most of the day at a mountain adventure park, we stopped by a grocery store and picked up a couple sides and Onion Rolls to make sandwiches with our leftover Pork. The sides were Potato Salad and Macaroni Salad.

BBQ Pork Sandwiches

I threw a Pork Shoulder in our Quick Cooker before bringing our driver’s-in-training out for another round of parallel parking while it was cooking. Jennifer knocked out a batch of her famous Pasta Salad while we were gone. We returned 45 minutes later and made BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches to go with the Pasta Salad and Macaroni Salad.

Pecanberry Salad

For dinner tonight, I had a Pecanberry Salad from McAlister’s Deli. It featured mixed greens, fresh strawberries and blueberries, candied pecans, grilled chicken and fat-free raspberry pecan vinaigrette. I thought it was mighty tasty.
