Oreo Brownies

By: Trisha

From: Katie Weber

3/4 Pkg. Oreos- crushed

1 Brownie Mix

1 Small Jar Marshmallow Creme

1 Container Chocolate Frosting

Put Oreos in a ziplock and crunch. It doesn't need to be fine, coarse bits are great! Put most in a greased 9 x 13. Mix Brownie mix as directed and put on top of oreos. Just dab it on so the oreos don't move around, but try to get it even. Bake as directed on box. When it comes out put Marshmallow Creme on, spread it evenly. Let it set a bit and then frost it with the Chocolate Frosting and put remaining bits of oreos on top. If you need more you can crunch up more, unless you ate them.

This is SOOOO good! I can't believe how yummy these things are! You've gotta try them at least once. If anyone can think of a better name for these I'd love to hear it.

Taco Salad

By: Trisha

From: Jeanette Masero

1 lb. Ground Beef

1 Large Onion

Salt and Pepper

1 can drained Red Kidney Beans

1 can drained Corn opt.

1 small bottle Taco Sauce

1 head of Lettuce

2 C. grated Cheese

1 pkg. broken Taco Chips or Doritos

Brown beef with onion. Salt and Pepper to taste. Drain. Mix in Red Kidney Beans, Corn, and Taco Sauce. Let this cool. Cut up lettuce, toss in grated cheese. When ground beef is cool mix it with lettuce along with broken Taco Chips.

This was surprisingly very good. I didn't think it would be, so I put tomatoes and sour cream on it. It is much better without the extras. I didn't use a whole head of lettuce and I added the corn. If Jeremy was making this he wouldn't add the taco chips in because they got soggy after awhile, but I liked it. He would add it individually to each serving.

I also think that this is a perfect way to use your food storage onions. It's so easy to put a large handful or more in place of the large onion.
