Pulled Chicken, Black Bean, and Corn Soft Tacos

Dinner Tonight: Pulled Chicken, Black Bean, and Corn Soft Tacos





For Breakfast this morning I had something a little different, Grilled Cheese and Egg Spam
Sandwich. Came across this recipe on Spam's Facebook page. The Sandwich turned out fantastic! Very good combination of ingredients and easily prepared. Your using; 2 slices Turkey SPAM® , 2 slices Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, 1 slice Sargento Ultra Thin Sharp Cheddar Cheese, and 1 large Egg. Mom even had one and loved it, so its Parent Approved! I also had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. After Breakfast I headed over to the rehab center to see Dad. I went with him for his morning therapy. He did real good today, proud of him! Still up in the air whether or not he can back home, hope so! Back home did a few things around the house. Outside its mostly cloudy, windy, and a high of 53 degrees. For Dinner tonight I prepared Pulled Chicken, Black Bean, and Corn Soft Tacos.



I wanted something light and delicious so what better than some Soft Tacos, haven't had any in a
while and it sounded good. To make these I’ll need the following; Old El Paso Flour Tortillas, 1 Rotisserie Chicken (Pulled Chicken), various Spices (to season the Chicken), 1 can Bush’s Chili Beans (Black Beans in Mild Chili Sauce), 1 can Green Giant Steam Crisp Nibblets (Whole Kernel Sweet Corn, sliced Black Olives, chopped Lettuce, Daisy Light Sour Cream, and Old El Paso Taco Sauce (Smoky Chipotle). The makings of something good!





I had purchased the Rotisserie Whole Chicken from Kroger yesterday afternoon. After getting it
home I pulled all the meat and stored it in a plastic container in the fridge until today when it was time to make the Tacos. I put the Chicken in a skillet and reheated it on medium heat. As the Chicken was heating I seasoned it with Ground Cumin, Dried Cilantro, Chili Seasoning, McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and McCormick Grinder Peppercorn Medley.









As the Chicken was heating I got my other ingredients ready. I opened up a can of Early California Whole Large Black Olives (Reduced Salt) and sliced them up. Then I got 2 small sauce pans; 1 for the Chili Beans and 1 for the Corn. Heated both until heated through.









With all the ingredients heated and ready I got the Soft Tortillas ready. I wrapped the Tortillas in
paper towels and microwaved them for 40 seconds. Now to make the Soft Tacos. I first layered in the Chicken, followed by the Taco Sauce, Chili Beans, Corn Kernels, Taco Sauce, Lettuce, and topped with a dab of Light Sour Cream. Loaded and ready to eat! Love these Soft Tacos. All the ingredients just come together to make one flavorful meal. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

Simple Grilled Cheese and Egg SPAM® Sandwich

This SPAM® sandwich recipe calls for eggs. But we're not going to use all kinds of silly made-up egg words to describe it. Like, for example, we could say the taste is "eggscellent" or "eggstraordinary." And that it'll fill you with "eggscitement." But that just feels too "eggspected" and there's no "eggspletive" way we're going to go there.

Ingredients

2 slices SPAM® Single Classic
2 slices bread
1 slice cheese
1 large egg
Directions

1.In small skillet, fry SPAM® Singles over medium-high heat, turning once, about 15 minute's.
2.In separate small skillet, cook egg to desired doneness.
3.Spread 1 side of each slice bread with butter. Place in skillet, butter-side-down; top 1 slice with cheese. Cook until cheese starts to melt and bread is toasted. Top cheese with SPAM® and egg. Cover with top slice bread.

Dinner Tonight: Pulled Chicken, Black Bean, and Corn Soft Tacos





For Breakfast this morning I got the Egg Poacher out and made a Poached Egg. I served it on a
toasted Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin also had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. It's another beautiful Fall Day out there, Sunny and 81 degrees. Finally got all the yard work done yesterday so today we gathered all the tables and chairs off the deck and driveway and stored them all in the shed. Our Fall Outside Cleaning is done! Took the cart out for a spin and picked up the mail. Tuckered out, rested up before Dinner. And for Dinner tonight I prepared Popcorn Shrimp w/ Mac and Cheese.

Black Bean and Turkey Tacos

Dinner Tonight: Black Bean and Turkey Tacos





Another perfect day outside, hope our streak continues! Moving sort of slow earlier today, stayed up late watching the Cincinnati Reds and Cardinals play a 16 inning ball game last night. Managed to go to the store and picked up a few items to make a Cheesecake for dessert tonight. For dinner it's one of my favorites, Black Bean and Turkey Tacos.





I used the leftover Jennie - O Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast from last night when I made a Turkey Burger. I fried it in Canola Oil and seasoned it with Sea Salt, Ground Roasted Cumin, Cilantro Flakes, and 1 package of Old El Paso Low Sodium Taco Seasoning. As I added the Taco Seasoning Mix I also added 1 can of Bush’s Low Sodium Black Beans, I drained and rinsed them before I added them. I love pairing the Black Beans with Ground Turkey. Mixed well until everything was coated and then simmered another 5 minutes until heated through.





For my other toppings I used 1 can Green Giant Steam Crisp Super Sweet Yellow and White Whole Kernel Corn, 1 small can of Mario Sliced Black Olives, 1 small diced Tomato, Sargento 4 Cheese Mexican Shredded Reduced Fat Cheese, a bag of Dole Shredded Lettuce, and all in a Ortega Whole Grain Corn Taco Shells. I love these Tacos! The crunch of the shells and all the different flavors and spices make a perfect Taco. For dessert later Cheesecake. See the Cheesecake posting for the recipe for the Cheesecake and Blackberry Sauce Topping.
