Hot Chili tacos

So I didn't actually get to try this, since I can't have chili (especially not the amount of chili sauce that he likes), but my boyfriend said it was yummy, so I'll take his word for it. If you have crohn's or colitis, I seriously wouldn't suggest eating this recipe... making it for your starving, skyrim playing boyfriend is a different story though ;P


 -Two tortillas or taco shells, depending what you have
- some kind of meat. I used half a seasoned chicken breast and a 1/4 cup of left over crock-pot pot roast from the night before.
- grated cheese
- hot chili sauce (I would have used mild taco sauce, if I had eaten it)
- salsa

1. Tear up your meat so that it's in small pieces. Grate your cheese, if it isn't already.
2. Put your meat in the microwave until it's hot, this took me about 1 minute. I left the "juice" from the roast meat in the mix, it gave it some pretty good flavor, I assume.
3. While your meat is in the microwave lay down your two tortillas and inside layer the hot chili sauce (as much as you can stand), a tablespoon or two of salsa, and a handful of cheese. I have pretty small hands, so I did one and a half. Do this for both tortillas or shells.
4. Once your meat is done, put equal amounts of it onto your tortillas or into the shells. If you're using shells, you're done! Enjoy! If you're using tortillas, wrap them like this:
enjoy! :)

Breakfast strawberry smoothie

So I finally found a way to have strawberries! Gotta be honest, I enjoyed drinking every last drop. I didn't measure exactly, since I didn't expect it to be that good. To me, it was like a healthy, ice-cream free milkshake!

4-5 strawberries, stems cut out
375 ml milk
3 tbsp vanilla yogurt
1/2 tbsp sugar
(and a little strawberry or vanilla protein powder if you want)

Process (this is the easiest thing ever):
1. put everything in a blender (I use my magic bullet)
2. strain it if you don't like or can't have seeds.

I was feeling red this morning, so I ate a tomato sandwich with it.
3. drink!!
