Wow, that's probably three words you don't hear said together often: "Turkey Chili Nachos!" But let me tell you, they were fantastic, and pretty easy to make too!
To start off, I browned the ground turkey with some black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Once that's ready, I added in one can of black beans, one can of whole kernel corn, and one can of tomato paste - stirring vigorously! Once the colors looked evenly spread throughout, I let it simmer for a bit while I microwaved a bunch of restaurant style Mexican chips (On The Border brand from Sam's is my favorite!). I tossed the warm chips in a bowl, covered them with the turkey chili, added a layer of shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream. Quick, easy, and delicious!

Dinner #1 - Breakfast Tacos!
Tonight's dinner was based on 4 major things:
- We had breakfast sausage.
- I love tacos.
- Heather mentioned something about having eggs.
- I love tacos.
So, I stopped off at a little hole-in-the-wall, authentic Mexican food place near the office and picked up some homemade tortillas. I browned up the sausage, tossed in 4 eggs, 1/2 a can of original Rotel, some black pepper, and scrambled it all together. This was my first time using the "orgreenic" pans (I ordered them online to try them out, then saw them at CVS for a few bucks cheaper) and they really worked well. A quick wipe out with a paper towel and I was heating up tortillas in the same pan. Once the tortillas were heated up, I tossed in the scramble mix and added some cheddar and monterey jack cheese to top it all off.
I tell you this: I will never eat another tortilla from a grocery store, if possible. I'm pretty sure I heard angels singing while I was enjoying the homemade tortillas.
