On Saturday Jim & I had the privilege of serving food at our church's Parenting conference. We didn't prepare the food, it was all purchased from Sam's, Subway, & Sweet Tomatoes, http://www.sweettomatoes.com/ I am very thankful our schedule allows us time to help with these events. There are advantages to not being involved in committees & organizations at this point in our lives. We can say yes to serving without feeling worn out or stressed.
Dinner at our house was a quick-fix meal: Taco Chicken from a previous post, served over baked potatoes, with sour cream & chopped green onions for garnish. I think I'll be making this chicken dish at least once-a-month. Anyone know where I can get coupons for Ro-tel tomatoes? I plan to stock up on them. Below is the Taco Seasoning recipe I use from the Taste of Home website. Enjoy!
