breakfast & lunch - Jan 2 & 8

January- June of 2015 was interesting.  Family injuries, burn unit at Parkland, home health care providers with a parent moving into our apt,....it was challenging.  But...it didn't keep us from eating, thanks to the Everything Man, my hubby.  So it's time to catch up on what we've eaten the first 6 months of the year.  Probably not many recipes...but yummy pics. Killer quesadillas.  You must pre-melt the cheese just a little in the microwave and then into sizzling hot butter in a small skillet.  Flip and cut....crispy and easy.   Biscuits, gravy, eggs and candied bacon

Quesadillas and Grilled Sandwiches

We eat a lot of these because they are so good, filling, pretty healthy and very quick and easy to make. Its rare that we wouldn't have flour tortillas, cheese, bread, lunch meat and butter on hand. I like my quesadillas better than most I've had in restaurants. I once got a quesadilla at a local "fancy" Mexican restaurant and it was two tortillas, just heated up with the cheese melted on top! I should have sent it back...what the heck is that? Not a quesadilla, thats for sure. Not to mention you usually get charged like 10 bucks for something that is poorly cooked and would take you 3 min to cook at home and cost less than a dollar to make. If I'm going to order something in a restaurant...it is usually something I don't know how to cook, or that is too labor intensive to cook..and I want to eat it now! anyway back to the quesdilla...I need that crispy cooked tortilla on the outside and properly melted cheese inside. Not too many ingredients either...I hate i...
