Mom has been enjoying having a personal cook this week. Today I made one of my favorite quick & filling meals: taco potatoes. We had a restaurant here in Carmel back when I was just out of high school that had baked potatoes with various toppings you could get like broccoli & cheese, chili & cheese, etc. My favorite was the taco one. You just bake one potato per person. Smash it with a fork and add butter if you like. I leave that off. I add pepper (I don't use salt since the taco seasoning has sodium in it).
Make taco meat (browned hamburger with taco seasoning). Top with shredded cheese (it melts a little if you put it on over the meat). Then shredded lettuce, taco sauce or salsa and some sour cream. Tomatoes are good on it too. I usually use a bigger baked potato for Bill and smaller for me. It's just nice that it's a meal all in one!
Bill went to a meeting today where he was fed a good lunch. He says he has plenty to do in the next couple of weeks getting equipment ready and picking up seed.

Oh Yum!
Since I'm avoiding red meat these days, some black beans mixed with salsa would be a great topping on the tater for me!
