Stories on Sunday--Corn and Bean Tacos

Most ingredients came right from the freezer!

I have been buy lots of corn because it has been on sale every week.  Thomas is finally getting excited about picking up his corn.  I guess that happens when your mom serves it...all...the...time!

I heated up the chicken and beans in one pan and then let the cheese melt on top.  It was tasty with great texture.


Can you tell we love Mexican inspired dishes around here?
