More time at home means more time to try new recipes. And that’s what we all are doing!!!

Jackson and I tried a recipe pretty much like taco soup, but in casserole form. It was SO good, you have to try it. Plus it was super easy!

Kelley’s Taco Casserole: 

• 1 pound ground beef cooked
• 2 cups of cheese
• 1 can of beans (drained)
• 1 can of Rotel
• 1 Can of sweet corn or frozen bag
• 1 package of taco seasoning
• 1 package/box of Spanish rice

1. Cook rice and beef separately
2. Mix all together and leave 1/2 cup of cheese and spread on top
3. Put in oven 400 degrees for about 20 minutes

Elaina’s Homemade Pasta (I just did and had no idea it was so easy):

I’d love to stay humble…but pretty sure the food network will be calling us by the morning. Guys, @goosegossettsongs and I are now professional pasta makers. Most likely going to need to start a restaurant. I don’t make the rules. 🍝 🍝 🍝 😂 but for real…we had such a fun Sunday trying something new. It was DELICIOUS and we made a creamy tomato sauce to go with it, then added in some chorizo sausage. We go out to eat so often, I forget how special it can be to make something completely from scratch, that takes a whole afternoon. Thank you @malhall for the inspiration!! #quarantine
