Break over...Here's the latest dinner from our house...
drum roll please! Taco Salad.
Can you tell I have been slacking lately? So, this recipe is not inspired by any recipe rather a reminder I got from my email letting me know how much I like taco salad (Don't you get those types of emails all the time?). So I ran out and got a couple ingredients and used some of what we had on hand to make up the rest. "What goes on my taco salad?" I hear you ask.
Here is the rundown of ingredients:
LettuceSharp Cheddar cheese
red onions (organic from our CSA!)
taco meat
cilantrogreen salsa
black olives
cucumbers (organic from our CSA!)
creamy cilantro dressing
This is a sad salad indeed. But because Drew does not like much more on his salad than lettuce and cheese, this was stepping out there. If the avocados from our CSA were ready, they would have made the cut. Overall, it was a nice summer meal.
Drew's contribution to our dinner was a cocktail of his imagining. It all started a couple days ago when we found a liquer on sale for $4.00/bottle...crazy, right? So, we snatched up a bottle and Drew started brainstorming what we could do with it. He came up with a rasberry-lime concoction that was pretty tasty. The recipe still needs a little tweaking, but it looks pretty, doesn't it?

I'd like to get a lime vodka and attempt a small drink(read: Shot, but that sounds like I'm a drunkard b/c people hear shot and believe that multiple shots must follow that initial one). I'm also thinking lemonade or lemonade vodka as well.
Dinner was good - seconds consisted off italian dressing. Don't do italian dressing on a taco salad. Wasn't that great.
