BRRRRRR!!!!
This is what we left at home, snow and ice and freezing
cold with canyons closing and roads impassable.
We escaped to this, Cabo, with blue skies, sunny beaches,
and gorgeous flowers.
What a fun time to get away for the New Year
and to escape the cold.
Cabo living deserves some Cabo style food
for this week.
We call these Super Nachos. They are a great game time
snack, appetizer or casual family dinner. They appeal to
all ages.
Super Nachos Recipe
Brown 1 lb. hamburger, drain.
Add 1 pkg. taco seasoning mix stirring in
and heating through.
Heat 2 - 16 oz. cans of refried beans in a
saucepan or the microwave.
On the bottom of a large round oven-proof pan
spoon the heated refried beans. Spoon the
seasoned meat on top. Top with 2 C. shredded
cheddar cheese. Place in a preheated 350 degree
oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted.
Remove from oven. Top with guacamole, salsa,
sour cream or ranch dressing and chopped tomatoes.
Layer chips around the edge so that it looks like
petals. I like to layer yellow and green chips, but
any colors would be great. Dip with the chips or
a spoon.
If you are stuck in the cold, hope this warms you up
a little.
(Close your eyes while you are munching on this
and picture your happy place!)

Ok, 28 degrees in Philly right now-that's just not right!!! Have a great trip, can't wait to hear about it:@)
ReplyDeleteI do this too, only I add the refried beans and seasoning to the browned beef in a large frying pan and heat them up together on the stove top adding a touch of water if needed. Maybe I'll make this for a quick dinner this week.

ReplyDeleteCabo sounds wonderful as it is super cold here and the snow is not melting soon. St. George WAS cold and the fountain in front of the condo had icicles in it. Your nachos look wonderful and your silverware looks even better than what I saw on the internet. Happy New Year! Joni
