And YES this thread will make you hungry. We need a warning label.

I am hearing from the thread readers who are not posting. On that note..post something folks! Just drop in and say hi.

I make "burrito filling." At first it was just leftovers but now I do it on purpose.

1 1/2 cups rice, cooked in a little less water than usual and seasoned to taste (garlic, pepper, chili powder, cumin)
1 cup or more leftover chopped chicken or beef (totally optional, believe me)
1 can black beans with liquid
1 can refried beans (love the seasoned kind)
2 12 oz bags frozen veggies, cooked (Mexican or Fiesta blend, usually)
1 cup or so Picante sauce

Mix it all together and heat it through. Then remove from fire (or microwave!) and stir in 8 oz shredded cheese, either Mexican blend or sharp cheddar. The cheese usually melts in without sticking to your pan or bowl. Serve wrapped in tortillas or serve in a bowl with lots of tortilla chips. Makes enough to have several meals.

When I have them, I chop in two avocados with the cheese soooooo good!

For shame, there is a fishing/ coast trip every thanks giving and I don't get to go..so my friends feel sorry and we meet up at a restaurant. Ok, I will go to Mimi's ..lol.

OH you have my sympathy! I worked retail at the holidays once and that was enough for me! Poor Gryph worked retail twelve years before we sprang him free. This will be his first holidays in forever when he doesn't have to work Black Friday. Ironically enough, I will have to work that day, but I don't mind--because it's not retail!
