TACO RICE AND CHEESE

1lb of ground beef
1pkg lowrys taco seasoning
1 cup of white rice (I like jasmine rice or basmati)
taco fixings

cook the taco meat according to directions on the seasoning packet, and cook the rice as well. Then in a bowl add a couple scoops of rice, taco meat, and whatever else you like on your tacos. I add sour cream, cheese, salsa, and crunched up doritos!! Yumm! (and it's cheap too)

STUFFED TOMATOES

2-3 whole tomatoes
1pkg goat cheese
good olive oil
fesh parsley
fresh dill

preheat oven to 350
cut the tomatos in half and scoop out the guts. Pack with goat cheese (if that is too strong for you cut it with some cottage or riccota cheese) and drizzle olive oil all over the top. Place them in an oven safe dish and then finely chop the dill and parsley and then add it on top. Bake for about 30-45 minutes until tomatos are soft

1/2 lb of feta cheese
