~ Bean Burritos

 RED BEANS are the start of GOOOOD things to eat.


A bowl of beans, with ham, is a favorite way for us to eat our beans.
We like cornbread with ours and fresh onions..ummm
My mother always fried a cast iron skillet full of potatoes and they
were sooo good. Since we aren't into much fried foods now, 
we do without the potatoes. (bummer)


Another favorite way to eat beans is 
BEAN BURRITOS....

You know...I have a recipe for flour tortillas from SCRATCH..
I made them ONE time and decided it was goofy to spend all that time,
mixing..
rolling...
frying...
when there's some delicious ones to buy at the market....
pop them for a few seconds in the microwave and you are good to go.


 Guacamole Chips are out of this world good. 


Serve them up with your favorite dip..
or, like I do sometimes, 
sour cream.


and enjoy...


Now, I like a few jalapeno peppers  with my BEAN BURRITOS...
but not many.....and not FRESH ones that are waaay too hot for me.












...a bottomless tall glass
of sweet Southern tea



A little cuteness on the table never hurts a thing...
it  always makes for a more enjoyable meal for me.
 My next post is about a fabulous and easy dessert
to top this meal off.

p.s. it just dawned on
me that this very well                                                        
could have been a
green St. Paddy's day post. :>)

  2. I'm here, I'm here!!! I bet you thought I fell in, didn't you? :) I love your new color. I'm stuck in time..still loving the red.. I'm looking forward to the new recipe. I was born October 8, 1936. We are really close in age. I'm closiing in on 80, bj, and not real sure how I feel about it. Guess it really doesn't matter..it's coming, like it or not. I guess we should consider ourselves lucky? :) I love your baby picture!! You've still got that same smile! Haven't changed a bit! Still cute as heck!! Personality plus!!! :)

  7. Green chips....interesting, BJ. I can't get a taste for the jalapenos, but my SIL loves things the hotter the better. He was raised in Texas among the farm workers from Mexico a good deal of the time, so he has acquired a Mexican taste bud. I still love him.

  10. I must look for the guac chips at the store -- they sound good. Never thought about using red beans in a burrito. You are full of good ideas to spark up a burritto!!! Sally

  13. BJ, The bean soup, potatoes, and cornbread is what we used to eat almost daily growing up. You better have an endless glass of tea with those peppers. LOL. Bless your heart, xoxo,Susie

  14. Gosh, I shouldn't come to your blog right before lunch - that all looks so good, now I'm starving! lol

  15. Yes, why bother making tortillas when so many good ones are available. We used to have a market nearby that made them fresh everyday and I'd buy them there but they are not there any longer. I love everything wrapped in a tortilla!

  16. When I used to work in produce departments, people would always come in for avocados for guacamole making. When they would go fast (like during superbowl weekend) all we had were the really fresh ones. "Got any more ripe ones in the back?" would commonly be asked. Because we put out the old stuff last...

    Blessings,

So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
