Sour cream and shredded cheddar needed

When making guacamole to go alongside tacos versus oven nachos w/ jalapeños, you'll recall the importance of securing your food processor for a whirling of those ranch dressing ingredients. You'll want this dip on hand for all your many intentions for it...crunchy lettuce salads speaking the loudest with a barely audible Antipasto Salad remembering how we enjoy it time and again (sans mushrooms) at good ol' Bemidji's Dave's Pizza, it's the best.

Taco Meat Recipe

Brown 2 lbs ground beef, drain well.  Add 2-15 oz cans pinto or black beans, whatever's on hand.

Add:

4 tsp instant minced onion

2 tsp salt

2 tsp chili powder

1 tsp instant minced garlic

1 tsp crushed dried red pepper

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp cornstarch

1/2 tsp oregano

Simmer with 1/2 cup water or more to meld flavors.  Serve on oven baked chips with melt cheese, green onions, and pickled jalapeño slices...350 for 7 minutes.  Or in toasted crunchy taco shells, rolled in microwaved soft tacos, however your heart leads.
