HERE! I'm here!
Hmmmmm we're having pork chops and homemade mac n cheese.... maybe I could put some salsa in the mac n cheese and call it mexican? Or, maybe I could mix it all together and put it in a tortilla? We're having shredded beef tacos tomorrow, I'll just celebrate seiz de mayo.

Sounds good but I would read the label on the envelope of taco seasoning there could be a lot of sugar in it. I went carb free a couple of year ago and ate only plants an meat. Seasoning was only from known seasoning as when I read the prepack the sugar and salt was about the roof.

Thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to look at it tonight. I'd bet you're right.

I cringe when reading packages.....try it. The amount of sodium alone will scare the processed food right out of you.

Totally agree about watching for hidden sugars. I was surprised to find it in garlic salt!

I sauted onions, garlic and shrimp in butter and olive oil with Old Bay seasoning. Then I made a white sauce and added the shrimp and leftover juices from the saute pan to it. Served it over rice with a side of asparagus. very quick and flavorful.

Same with the salsa. If it is prepackaged, there are most likely a lot of sugars.

Yep! I forget which brand that was, but I am sure to check the label before buying now!

They add sugar and salt and all kinds of crapp to any and every thing that they can. It's a pain to always have to check labels.
