Summer fun!

Tuesday, I went to lunch with a friend who works at a local hospital. We ate in the hospital cafeteria and I ate one of my favorite dishes that they serve. Here is the recipe:

John Wayne Casserole

2 lbs Ground Beef
2 cups Sour cream
1 cup Mayonnaise
1 cup Diced onions
1 pkg Biscuiit mix (small pouch of Bisquick)
4 each Fresh tomatoes
½ cup Diced green peppers
2 pkgs Taco seasoning
½ cup Jalapeno peppers
3 cups Shredded cheddar cheese

Brown ground beef and drain fat. Mix in taco seasoning. In separate bowl mix sour cream, mayonnaise, ½ of the cheddar cheese and chopped onion. Mix the biscuit mix following package directions. Lightly grease a casserole dish and press biscuit dough in the bottom of the dish to ½ inch depth. Layer ground beef, sliced tomatoes, chopped bell pepper and diced jalapenos. Spread mayonnaise mixture on top. Finish off with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes until the crust is light brown.

To make it low carb, I will try it without the bisquick. I say low carb as if i'm dieting, but I am going to try to get back on track with my low carb diet on Monday. I've been following it off and on since January and had lost 17 lbs. I need to re-lose a few of those lbs. now!!

Tuesday evening I went to pick up my grandson, Landen. His baseball game was rained out, so I picked him up early and brought him to spend a couple of nights. We love having him over. He's really a great kid and easy to have around. We didn't do much except him & Walter went swimming and then we made homemade pizzas.


On Wednesday, my friend, Lesley came over with her boys to swim. We all had a great time and also went to eat lunch at Hilltop!! Yummm!!!





And then that evening, Walter watched Landen while I went to Saritas for Margaritas and Puffy Taco's with 2 friends! We had a great time!!!

Have a great evening!!
