Ah, tacos. One my favorite words (and definitely one of my favorite things to eat.)

But stick breakfast before it and it’s just that much better!


Looking back at so many good times, including my honeymoon, were spent enjoying tacos and just enjoying the simplicity of how good they can be.

While our family is pretty happy any time you get a tortilla and put cheese in it, there’s something about eggs, meat and cheese all wrapped up in such the way you can get all of the flavors of huevos, chorizo and melted queso all.in.one.perfect. bite. Now you can with these Breakfast Taco Enchiladas.

Breakfast-Taco-Enchiladas-MamaChallenge-Pin-That-Twist

Although tacos can be pretty easy to make, sometimes you need a little something extra – a little twist to keep the flavors fun and add a little something to your norm. AND there are just some days you just want to wake up and not have anything to do but just enjoy breakfast. Especially on Sundays when we work to have breakfast together as a family.

Pin-That-Twist-Kraft-Cheese-Albertsons

With Easter on the way (and a brunch menu in the works), we’ve combined the best of both worlds: tacos and enchiladas into one fantastic dish you’re family is going to love. While at my local Albertsons I picked up an extra bag of Kraft Natural Shredded Cheese (Mexican blend is our favorite, but you can use any cheddar-based mix) and a package of Philadelphia Cream Cheese. (There was such a deal going on that I may have grabbed a few more of both, too.

Another great thing about this recipe is that you really can make it your own. If you wanted to add vegetables to this dish for a really hearty meal or remove the meat altogether. If you wanted to mix it up even more so by making different taco variations (based on what’s leftover in the fridge for filling), you can try to accommodate everyone’s tastes. But honestly, after you pour the green chile enchilada sauce and add that one last sprinkle of cheese to the top, everyone is going to be happy that you just made it. And of course, you gotta love the garnishes…my favorite is cilantro, hands down.

Fancy Schmancy. This month’s @torchystacos Taco Fancy Schmancy.

This month’s @torchystacos Taco of the Month is this beut: she’s full of eggs, smoked salmon, pickled onions, capers, chopped dill, and the herb cream cheese. And yes she’s fancy but oh so good and worth the splurge.

Paired with a side of queso and change out the chips for chicharrones with that white queso (and maybe a Paloma), and you’re golden.

Today on @wfaagmt I shared how to make the most of those leftovers and old vegetables and fruits! The kitchen smells so good with an apple tarte tartin, truffles, potato chips, broth, banana bread, and this cilantro green sauce! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Taken from @beardfoundation:

INGREDIENTS

1⁄4 cup red wine vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1⁄2 cup fresh cilantro stems (from 1 bunch of cilantro)
1⁄2 cup olive oil or neutral oil, such as organic canola or grapeseed
1⁄2 tsp ground cumin

DIRECTIONS

In a blender or the mixing cup of a small food processor or immersion blender, combine the vinegar and a pinch of salt and pepper. Swirl a few times to dissolve the salt. Add the stems, olive oil, and cumin — puree. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

❄️ I’m dreaming of a White Christmas... We ❄️ I’m dreaming of a White Christmas...

We normally head to the mountains at Christmas time, but this year we’re just happy to celebrate Christmas healthy and together with lots of wonderful trips around home including to the @gaylordtexan. So we broke from our matching plaid instead with this mom/daughter snowflake set from @shinestythreads. Most their stuff is exactly what you need to dominate the Christmas sweater game, our little bit of cheesy (cue “Let it Go...”) but came out too sweet not to share. (When they’re this age, you take it when you get it!)

Shinesty is the resource for all the holidays apparel and even does free returns! Save their page for when you need to be the talk of the party (online and in person.)

I love celebrating our holiday traditions, but this year we made a new one! I’ve always wanted to see Christmas lights by carriage ride and this year we made it happen by surprising the girls! 

We spent the night looking at beautiful houses, drinking hot chocolate under the blankets and hearing some of the best commentary from the girls!

🐴 There are several different carriage ride companies (we used Whitehaven Carriages) that drive through Deerfield and Highland Park with multiple types of carriages (there’s even a Cinderella) for varying prices starting around $175+. 

🐴While rides reserve quickly, you might be able to find some after the holidays! If not, put this in the calendar for next year because it’s a must do!

(I’ve shared some of it on Instastories!)

Are you making a different kind of O Face because Are you making a different kind of O Face because your not sure if that box is gonna make it? O-NO! 😱

Deadlines start today fast and being in those long lines might be the worst part of Christmas. However, I shared some tips  on @wfaagmt on how you can avoid feeling like a Grinch when it comes to shipping. 🙌🏻

Here are some tips you might not know before you get in line: 

🎁 The big three all have pick up at your house, by going online and scheduling for pick up @ups, @usps.official and @fedex.

Did you know that several stores actually have shipping inside? 
🎁Some Ace Hardware stores @acehardware and local Eliott’s Hardware
🎁 @Staples - they have all the supplies for you to box it up (and I have a coupon in my Instastories!)
🎁 CVS ships UPS
🎁 Heading to those third party parcel stores can definitely save you some time.

Ship to Store is a huge way to get the item delivered quicker to you or to have sent. 
🎁 Get your @amazon sent to an Amazon Locker  or @wholefoods for shipping and pick up! 
🎁 @target - drive through pick up with the App 
🎁 @Walmart - just launched a new service called Walmart+ which is like Amazon Prime where you can get it. (Try it free now!) 

Last-minute shipping?
🎁 While you might not want to pay for those last-minute shipping services, if you use @rakuten you can save money on your purchase so then it still can be affordable for your budget. (I have already racked up a $600 cash back check just for using Rakuten - head to my profile to get a link to get $20 back when you use it! (It’s FREE!)
