Day 161 - A quick and easy favourite


After daycare, dinners need to be fast, quick and easy!

One of our favourite quick and easy meals are Nachos. The girls absolutely love them, so much so they clean nearly two bowls full (well I guess they are usually half filled bowls but still...) So I thought I'd share my quick and easy recipe.

Quick and Easy Nachos

1 onion
500g minced meat
1 packet taco seasoning
400g tinned tomatoes
1 tin (medium size) baked beans - drained of the juices
2-3 Tablespoons of Salsa
splash of water 
Plain corn chips
Salsa
Grated cheese

1. Cook the onions and minced meat until brown.
2. Add the taco seasoning, tomatoes, baked beans, 2 T of salsa and water to the pan and cook for 5 - 10 minutes.
3. Line the outside of an oven proof dish with corn chips. Put the mince mixture in the middle of the corn chips. Cover with Salsa and grated cheese. 
3. Cook for 10 minutes on 180 degrees or until cheese has melted.

Sometimes I put some extra corn chips on a baking tray and cover them with cheese and cook in the oven for 5 minutes so we have some really crispy corn chips.

If you decide to make these, I hope you enjoy them as much as Olivia and Ava do.
