Leftovers

After the Superbowl party we had sour cream, half a bag of shredded cheese, salsa and an avocado left. It made sense that our dinner Monday night would be tacos. After a quick trip to the store to pick up ground beef and a taco kit dinner was half made.

The ground beef we found at the store was processed for making chili. It had a high fat content, which I needed to drain away before adding the taco seasoning, but it made the chunks of meat larger and more substantial. Instead of the typical small tubes of meat, the ground beef was in thicker tubes. I had wished I made the taco seasoning myself, using chili powder and cumin, someday.

We had enough left over to eat tacos for lunch the next day, plus I ended mushing up the avocado and stirring in some fresh lime juice, along with the taco sauce from the kit to make a dip for the chips. We used up all the left overs from the Superbowl party and had two enjoyable meals.
