Who else is in disbelief that Christmas is only a few weeks away? I keep asking myself where did 2016 go? It’s also pretty hard to believe that this means I have been posting quick dinner ideas for over a year now. I know I shared some of the recipes featured below last year, but they were too good not to make again in 2016! Being able to marinate the firehouse chicken up to three days in advance makes it one of those meals you can prep on Sunday for the middle of the week.
If you make the steak tacos I’d be curious to know how they turn out if you use flour tortillas instead. The flavorless and dry corn tortillas from the grocery store detracted from what was otherwise a quick and flavorful dinner.
OK, I am off to find some long johns for my trip to the mountain timezone tomorrow. Wish me luck that I make my connecting flights and don’t freeze to death in the arctic blast taking over that part of the country!
As always, please let me know if you enjoyed any of the recipes featured below, and share my blog with your friends!
