Throw Back to my Childhood! So the other day I was thinking about a dish my mom used to make when I was a kid, that I loved… I don’t know what the actual name of it was, but we called it Wild Rice & hamburger. My mom was the queen of cost conscience meals and this one was a staple at our house and it heartily fed all 6 of us! This was one of my favorites! Anyway, I…

Beef Short Rib Tacos

Happy Monday, I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I thought I’d share one of my family’s favorite recipes with you today and guess what? It’s not chicken!!  We eat A LOT of chicken at my house because it’s good and because it’s lower in fat. This Sunday though, we had Beef Short Rib Tacos. I typically eat red meat only once a week, though some weeks it could be more. These particular tacos have a significantly higher fat content…
