Casey’s Inspired

For those of you that have never had a "taco pizza" from Casey's I am truly apologetic! Their pizza is pretty much a religion to some (including my brother-in-law) and I was in desperate need of a "fix" last night! Since I didn't feel like making the 15 mile road trip last night to the closest pizza producing pump station, I make my very own "taco pizza".

I bought a pre-made pizza dough from the refrigerated section of our local Wal-Mart.

Browned 1lb of hamburger along with 1/2 a large onion (which I chopped in my new favorite kitchen appliance, my food processor!) then added a packet of taco seasoning to the mix.

Topped the pizza dough with the hamburger mixture and added a little cheese.

The next step is my favorite! We spend our whole life trying not to crumble up the potato chips in those flimsy foiled bag, but for once I got to stick it to the man... and crush away! (Since it was just T and I eating I grabbed a handful and did this step in a Ziploc baggie)
After about 10 minutes in the oven I just topped the hamburger meat with a little lettuce, crushed up Doritos, and taco sauce.

It may not be Casey's, but it will get ya by in a pinch!

Please Hurry...

I don't know why, but I have been in a awful mood for the past few days... I am blaming the weather lol! I cannot wait for spring to get here!!!!! So I thought I might post a couple snap shot I took last spring to try and brighten this gloomy mid-west day!

The Muffin (Wo)man

I don't know why, but things just taste so much better when they are pretty to look at! lol One of my favorite (and most used) wedding gift is a cake/cheese stand with glass dome. The stand is rarely empty, T and C love their muffins so have become quite the Muffin Maker! lol I try and mix it up a little and alternate between the pans I use.

I prefer the muffin top tin.

While C loves the mini muffins.

And T is "Typical T" and enjoys your traditional muffin!

I am always looking for new recipes so please feel free to send some my way!
