Last nights supper was “clean out the fridge” night. We do that about once each week. Whatever is in there is what’s for dinner. Last night there was a bit of corned beef, some taco meat mixed with refried beans and cheese and a bit of this and a touch of that. Kind of a weird combo of foods. Each one is very good by itself, but will the combo be good as a group?
I have tried several different recipes and one enchilada one was horrible. Last nights combo of Mexican and Irish was actually quite tasty together. Tasty enough I wrote it down so as not to forget to look it up today.
