    I will definitely be trying those Korean beef tacos soon. ๐Ÿ˜‹ Thanks for sharing! One of the go-to recipes I make for my family as we always have the ingredients on hand is Salsa Chicken. I just throw some chicken, a jar of salsa, black beans, and onions in the slow cooker. So yummy served over rice and topped with all the typical taco fixings.

    Well now Iโ€™m going to have to try cheddar on my pasta! You havenโ€™t steered me wrong yet!! Tacos are definitely a staple here as are burgers on the grill or frozen tortellini with parm and a salad โ€” those are the go-tos!

    It seems like we always have chicken breast/tenders and ground beef in the freezer so tacos, burgers, or a quick pasta sauce are staples..and for the chicken I like to make fajitas ( the ones on Tasteofhome.com are SO good!) or I make Ranch Parmesan chicken (i follow the Kittencals recipe). I think Iโ€™ll try the Skinnytaste meatballs, her recipes are always so good!

    Love this video! I always put cheddar cheese on top of my pastaโ˜บ๏ธ I am determined to crockpot the meals this week. I am absolutely using up my pantry and freezer items and only spent 43.00 for the weekly grocery shopping.! I am feeling so accomplished!

    Great dinners jen!
    We have been having tacos on Tuesday! So good. We had those Doritos tacos last week! This week was dollar tree tacos/tortillas( they were good) . I did a double stuff taco with stuffing the tortillia in the hard shell and putting them in the oven for a bit. Very good!
    I definitely would like to make my own biscuits. Looked yummy!
    Our freezer is sad right now. Just have some chicken tenderlions, ground turkey and tator tots. We need to stock up! Lol
    Thanks jen for the ideas! ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–

    Go to meal is pizza. I make pizza dough and bake ahead of time, then freeze it. So when we are running late or have no dinner ideas, we defrost the dough and top with any veggies and meats we have on hand. I have allergies so eating out is not really an option.

    Those all looked good to me. I think Spaghetti is my go to if I don't have time or can't think of anything. I am going to make the stroganoff meal for sure. Also, I loved watching Conner help. XOXO
