2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
4 cups oil for frying, or as needed

Meat Mixture and Toppings

1 pound ground beef
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 (15.5 ounce) can pinto beans, with liquid
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup picante sauce

Combine beans and 2 tablespoons of picante sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until heated through. In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef with taco seasoning mix according to seasoning mix package directions. Cover, and keep warm while you prepare the fry bread.

I like taking some of the lacing shapes to church to help keep the little ones reverent and busy. It has definitely made my Sundays easier! I have to say the quality is quite superb for the price. I would definitely suggest this to any parent. The various colors help with color recognition and the shapes too. Overall a great learning and playing set.

Our Review of the Ideal Classics The Bungalow Dollhouse-

This set is definitely fun for our girls. They were delighted to have a dollhouse. It's small but fun because it features working lights. They loved being able to design the rooms. It was fairly easy to set up. The only tool you need is a screwdriver to put the batteries in. I just have to find some dollhouse dolls to fit in it, although there are some that you can order separately. I would definitely recommend this for ages 5 and up.

Spam & Furikake Rice w/ Corn

2011-01-03T03:02:00.002-07:00

Sometimes when you are a busy mama you must to cook the simplest of island grinds.

One Hawaiian staple, that is a must...is SPAM!

I'll admit, it sounds worse than it is. But TRUST me, if you are lookin' for a quick meal with some island rootz, anything with SPAM is great! It's probably the EASIEST recipe on this site.

Ingredients:

6 cups of Steamed Sticky Rice

2 cans of Corn

1 can of Spam

Wasabi Furikake Rice Seasoning or

Nori Komi Furikake Seasoning

(optional)

Steam up some rice. (We prefer Calrose, not the healthiest--but we love

that it works for any meal.)

Boil the corn, add 1 TBSP of salted butter and lots of black pepper. Set this aside.
In a cup, mix 2 TBSP water with 2 TBSP Soy Sauce or Shoyu (We like Aloha brand--it's theeee best!)- Set aside.
Measure 1 TBSP White Sugar- Set Aside

Open some Spam.

Slice it up any way you like.

Heat a frying pan....fry it up on both sides. I don't use any oil...it's not necessary if you have a good pan.

After browning each side of the spam, make an open area in the middle of the pan.

Sprinkle the Sugar and immediately pour the water/soy sauce mixture on and stir to make a sauce. Coat the spam then remove the pan from the heat after a minute.
Once the rice is cooked, place a scoop of rice on a plate, sprinkle the Furikake Rice Seasoning over the rice. Top it with the spam and put the corn on the side.
Enjoy!
