Breakfast on the Go

My family loves breakfast tacos! We all have our favorites - chorizo and egg; bacon egg and cheese; and potato and egg. There is even a Taco Cabana on the way to work. This, however, can quickly add up (especially when they charge $0.70 for cheese).

My solution is to cook extra bacon and sausage on Sunday morning. I then make and assemble tacos for the first few days of the week. It is quick to assemble, wrap in foil and place in the refrigerator. To reheat, just pot in the oven at 250F for about 15 minutes or microwave on medium for a minute. Nice hot breakfast to start the day! They are even easy to eat on the go.

Making it a Green Year!

I do promote Going Green and am always looking for simple ways to be greener. Of course, I love passing on those little things I find. So here's my green tip for the day.

No more paper napkins! (Okay, so I'll still pull out the cute paper napkins at the holidays!) You can find great cotton hand rags in packages of 10-12 to use as table napkins. I picked up a package of 12 white cotton hand rags at Kohls for less than $3.00. They are great!

A quick wash in hot water and Oxiclean and they are sparkling again.
