People might call this by any given name, but this is what we call it by.  Supper Nachos!  YUM!  This is so quick and easy and my hubby LOVES it! :)  Bon Appetite! 





Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 pkg of taco seasoning mix
1 can of refried beans
grated cheese

optional:
olives
tomatoes
sour cream

Directions:
Brown the meat and add the taco seasoning mix.  Then spread the beans in a 8 x 8 pan.  Layer the meat next.  Then add the grated cheese on top  (however much you want).  Put it in the oven @ 350 for about 20 min.  (Just to warm everything.)  Then, you can add all the optional stuff to after you serve it:  olives, tomatoes, and sour cream.  And don't forget to eat this marvelous dinner with tortilla chips or tortillas :)  YUM!  

(I promise we don't always eat Mexican food.--despite what this blog shows! :) )

Toddler Tuesday: Thumb Sucking

S is has been sucking/chewing her thumb.  I have been a little worried about it because I have heard that it can be bad for the children's teeth (when they come in) among other things.  I know that S is young, but it says in this great article that it can effect toddlers as well!  But honestly it is so darn cute!  This picture was actually taken a few months ago, but it just melts my heart!  Cute huh?



Here are five tips to help stop thumb sucking:


1. Make Her Think it's Her Idea

2. Weaken the Habit

3. Help Her Notice

4. Use Authority

5. Consider Peer Pressure

Meal-Time Monday: Hot Dog Men!

It's hard to get kids to always eat what they should.  But this is one dinner that you won't have to fight them on! :)  Enjoy!

HOT DOG MEN!



  • Ingredients:

  • 8 hot dogs
  • 8 slices bread
  • 8 slices American cheese
  • ketchup and mustard to taste


Directions:

  1. Make a slit down the middle of one end of each hot dog; this will be the legs. At the other end, make a small slit each side; these will be the arms. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil, and add the hot dogs. Boil for about 5 minutes until the slits open up.
  2. Place slices of cheese onto slices of bread. Set the hot dog men on top. Use ketchup and mustard to make a face, hair and clothes or buttons.
