If you’re looking for a quick and easy meal for your family, this taco bean tostada hits the spot. It’s super easy, so before I share the recipe I thought I’d fill you in on a bit around here. As most of you know I’ve traveled the past 2 weekends. It’s been FUN, but I sure am relishing my first Saturday morning in a long time that I can lounge around in my pj’s without a strict agenda. Isn’t it fun to have a free day once in a while? How long has it been for you? Is it time to “schedule” a free day into your calendar? 😉

* Written this past Thursday when I was on my way….I just got home last night (Sunday). Had a BLAST!! More to come!

I’ve been quite the traveler lately! As a homeschool mom of 3, I don’t get out much. Really I don’t!! But lately it seems like every time I turn around, a new adventure awaits! Last weekend my good friend Michelle and I embarked on a food blogger road trip. We headed to Tampa for TECHmunch, a more intimate food blog conference than most put on by Babette of Bakespace. I have so much to share on that, but it’ll have to wait for a different post.

This isn’t exactly what you’d call a recipe, but I just have to share it with you. It should be no surprise to you that I try to avoid processed foods as much as I can. Now I still haven’t perfected homemade yogurt (though I’ve only tried a few times), but years ago I switched to buying whole milk, plain yogurt and flavoring it ourselves with fruit and honey. Thankfully the girls love it. For some reason though, we only usually eat it with frozen organic berries. I haven’t thought outside that box. Don’t know why……

Roast beef potato hash ~ attempt at a childhood favorite

Posted on April 16, 2012 by Denise

Ever have a favorite food you remember from childhood? I always loved the taste of corn beef hash. I never even really knew what it was, just that it was good! I pretty much never think of it though, until I see a can of it in the store. But I just don’t do meat in a can! Hey….no judgement here, but the thought if it gives me the heebie-jeebies! Seriously!!
