I always look forward to taco night for two reasons:
- Tacos are delicious
- Taco leftovers make for an awesome taco salad for lunch
Right after I licked my plate clean finished dinner last night, I used the remaining lean ground beef taco meat, salsa and shredded lettuce to make today’s taco salad.
I added two large handfuls of frozen corn kernels to the salad to thaw overnight.
Note: Frozen corn is surprisingly delicious straight outta the bag!
I closed the Tupperware lid on this bad boy and shook it up until the salsa coated every last inch of lettuce.
Darn good eatin’.
Wanna know what else was darn good eatin’?
My dessert.
Enter, Reese‘s peanut butter cups!
A coworker and I split a pack of this chocolate + peanut butter deliciousness and I enjoyed every last bite!
I’ve been eyin’ Reese’s since I saw the Easter Reese’s eggs on the shelves at the grocery store this week.
I <3 Easter candy!
What’s your favorite Easter candy?
I can’t get enough of those Cadbury mini eggs. They’re the best!
My mom loves Peeps… but she likes them a little stale and removes them from their packaging for a day before eating them. 🙂

I have always been obsessed with the Cadbury Creme eggs! Now that I’m older, they are kinda gross to me. But I loved them when I was young!
Junie B says

Mmm I like the Snickers Eggs and the Reese’s Eggs – the Reese’s Eggs are extra peanut buttery!

The Reese’s eggs are both me and Andrew’s favorite!! My grandma usually puts mostly healthy stuff like luna and larabars in my Easter basket (yes, 26 and my g-ma still gives me a basket, haha), but she always knows to put in a few reese’s too! 🙂 So good!!
peanutbutterfingers says
haha i still get an easter basket, too. i hope this never changes. 😉
Anna says
Why is it that deconstructed meals are so fun?! I love meals with lots of parts to them 🙂

Amy (Up and Running!) says
Haha my mom does that with peeps too! She also does it with licorice…weird.
