Taco Salad

October 28, 2011 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 7 Comments

Howdy Folks,

Well we did it!!  We made it to Friday.  This week, seemed like such a long week, I never thought Friday would get here.  So how was your week?  On a positive note, I got my Amercian Red Cross Donation Card,  I found out I’m A Positive! Is that a good grade?  lol  I’m kidding!  Funny, at my age I didn’t know my blood type.  I know that’s kind of sad!

Well, on another topic, I have to say Thursday was quite a day, we had a 3.6 Earthquake in the morning and my friend, Nicole, text me first thing this morning to tell me.  Whenever there’s an earthquake people from all over must tell me.  Probably because I always say, I know it’s coming and then my friend Andrea and I start looking up what to do and then we predict what would happen if one happened.  Were kind of crazy about it!  It seems California has been rockin and rolling the past couple of weeks.  I hope that the little earthquakes is all were going to have.  They say the little ones is good, it’s when we don’t have any and then a big one hits from all the pressure!  Eck!!!  I only felt a few earthquakes living here and it’s scary and kind of cool in a weird way, as long as there is no damage!

Speaking of Rockin and Rolling I made a Taco Salad that Rocks!   It’s healthy and best of all quick!!!


First I cooked the ground beef and then I start to layer.  First layer, 1/2 cup of Mexican Lite Cheese!!

Then 1 Cup of your favorite Salsa!  I used Trader Joe’s Chunky Salsa.

1/4 Cup of Greek Yogurt

4 Cups of Shredded Romaine Lettuce.

Top with Black Olives and Tomato

Serve on Tortilla Chips and Load with Hot Sauce!

Taco Salad

1lbs. Lean Ground Beef (I used 96/4)

2 Tbsp. of Taco Seasoning

1/4 Cup of Water

1/2 Cup of Lite Mexican Cheese – Shredded

1 Cup Salsa

1/4 Cup of Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt

4 Cups of Romaine Lettuce – Shredded

2 Tbsp.  Black Olives

1 Small Tomato – Diced

1/4 of a serving of Tortilla Chips – I used Guiltless Gourmet

Directions:

In a pan/skillet, fry up your ground beef, until no pink remains and is fully cooked, about 10 minutes.

Add your taco seasoning and water.  Cook until water is evaporated.

Time to layer!  In a Pyrex dish or any big dish you like, add your cooked Ground Beef, Cheese, Yogurt, Lettuce, Black Olives and Tomato.

On your dinner plate, add your tortilla chips, top with salad and add your hot sauce.  I didn’t add hot sauce or any kind of heat to the salad, I like to let people add there own hot sauce!  But for me, I like it spicy!!!

You could add chili peppers to the ground beef or jalapenos to the salad.  You can add nacho cheese or anything you like!!!

Calories with Chips:  252,  Fat:  8.8g,  Cholesterol:  77,  Potassium: 173,  Carbs 10,  Fiber:  1.4,  Sugar:  2,  Protein:  31

How do you like your Taco Salad?  I also like it with shredded chicken, but my family likes beef better!!!

This would be great to make a huge batch and serve it at a football party!   Have a big bowl of tortilla chips and a side of hot sauce!

Have a great weekend!!!

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I have an addiction to Hi, my name is Jennifer and I have an addiction to bunnies and the carrots they eat. Please send help.
🥕
This weekend I worked on my bar cart and let me tell you that I am loving the orange color and all the carrots and bunnies. So much fun!! 
🥕
In the bowl on the tiered tray you see wooden carrots, those are from @krumpetshomedecor. They are so cute!! My dogs seem to be obsessed with them when I hung them on my cart, so I had to hide them. I’ll share them in stories today.
🥕
The carrot sign on the wall, little carrot sign on the tiered tray are from Krumpets Home Decor. Plus the wooden carrot banner is the Krumpets deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off: PBANDP. Link in bio.

The orange placemats lining the bar cart are the placemats I shared last week from @vmathome 

The carrot tea towel is from my good friend Alicia @theblessedpeach

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.
🫧
I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural. 
🫧
The beautiful spring tea towel is from my friend Alicia from @theblessedpeach. 
🫧
The tray and canister is Targets Hearth and Hand. The marble paper towel holder is Target Threshold. The soap is Trader Joe’s!
🫧
Hope I inspire you to do a little spring cleaning!! Have a great Monday!

Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is just awful out there. Heavy rain, high winds and hail. This is not a winter that we are used to in California. 
🥕
My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. It went Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. It went way too quick. I can’t believe it’s Monday again. But on the plus side, I have a clean home to start the week, which is a great feeling.
🐰
I’m sharing with you my media table all decked out for Easter. I just love decorating for spring and Easter. Something about pulling out the bunnies that makes me smile. 
🐰
I am loving my Wanted Bunny sign that I got from @12timbers. I love that it’s a neutral color that will go with any style and color. The sign comes in three sizes, and you can choose the coloring of the background and design color.
🐰
The Jute Tree with the Eggs and the Wooden Bunnies are also from 12 Timbers. The Jute Tree is so much fun to add to your decor. I love the colors of the felt eggs. Plus I love the shape and the way the eggs hang off the branches. The Wooden Bunnies are just the cutest. You know me and bunnies. You can choose your bunnies in pink, white or stain. So much fun to add anywhere in your home. 
🐰

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol
🐰
Have a beautiful day!

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. 
🌸
Have a wonderful Monday!!

Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather. We are having extreme winds again and boy is it cold out. It’s only in the 30’s right now and tomorrows high is in the 40’s. Normally by now I am planting seeds in the ground and prepping for Spring gardening. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Where’s the California Spring weather?
🐰
Since we don’t have Spring outside, I thought I would bring Spring in the house. I bought my first fresh bouquet of tulips. Aren’t they pretty? This makes me so happy. Plus I couldn’t resist bringing the bunnies out. They seemed to have multiplied since last Spring. lol
🐰
This Spring vignette was inspired by the beautiful welcome sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I love the bead handle and the cute little bunny on it. The sign is reversible, swipe to see other side. So you can use it all year. It would be beautiful in an entry, guest bedroom and on your front porch.
🐰
The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in Bio.

What’s the weather like where you live?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterd Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterday we watched on Netflix Your Place or Mine with Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. If you like the classic Rom-Com movies you’ll enjoy it.
💗
I added a little of Spring decor to my bench in my living room. I will probably change this spot up once I pull my spring decor out, but for now I like it.
💗
It’s crazy how big this space looks in video, when it’s quite small. I call this my runway zone because the dogs run through this space like maniacs. So I have to keep it light with no breakables. 
💗
The two large pillows are from Target and the little bunny pillow is from the Target Dollar Spot. The throw is from Pier1 when they had a storefront. The sign on the wall is from Krumpets Home Decor.
💗
Have you started decorating for Spring?

Happy Wednesday! Hope you had a nice Valentines Da Happy Wednesday! Hope you had a nice Valentines Day. It was just a normal day. We will celebrate this weekend.
🐾
I have gotten so many questions lately about the runner in my kitchen that I thought I would share with you a close up and some information about it. This is not a collaboration. 
🐾
The vinyl runners are from @vmathome. They are so easy to clean, pet friendly, anti-slip, and durable. I love these vinyl runners in the kitchen and hallway. If the dogs get dirt or water on them, I just clean it up with a paper towel. They have been a life saver having them with two young dogs.
🐾
The vinyl mat on the first picture is the Dandelion Vinyl Mat. If you swipe the photo you will see the vinyl mat that used last year in my kitchen which is the Charlotte Vinyl Mat. If you sign up for emails, you will get discount codes.
🐾
These two pictures are a year apart. Look how much my baby Sully has grown. 🥹
🐾
Have the best day!
