Taco Pizza
We had leftover taco meat from our walking tacos at lunch and I had planned grilled pizzas for dinner, so I put the two together. There’s a quick cheese sauce on top that was so easy and added lots of flavor! I threw on a couple crunched up chips after I took the picture and…

Sweet Chicken Meatballs

Chicken Cordon Blue Casserole
