You can get the zip-lock bags. Can you make a layered casserole in the crock pot? I want to do meatballs, with noodles and onions spaghetti sauce and shredded cheese.

I tried brailling some file folder labels, but they are falling off, as items get pushed around in the freezer. I have a Pen Friend, and the stickers adhere well. They are expensive, though, so I'm hesitant to use them for leftovers, where I will be throwing away the bag after only one use. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

Re: [CnD] a dish I make and some questions
Well, omit the cheese and sour cream. Instead of these great your own cheese, perhaps something with a bit of spice? I specifically say to great your own cheese because I have found that the cheeses that come already grated do not melt well. I have read this is because they are coated with a substance that helps to prevent them from sticking. In Lieu of the sour cream being inside your taco grande save it for a topping along with some fresh snipped cilantro and chopped scallions. > Message: 7 > Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:11:50 -0400 > From: "Mike and Jenna" > To: > Subject: [CnD] a dish I make and some questions > Message-ID: <06d001d05c05$51a53dc0$f4efb940$@gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain;charset="us-ascii" > > Hi, > > I make this dish wich is kind of a rp off of taco bells natcho bell grandae. > > I fry up some hamburger and and a packet of taco seasoning mix.

Re: [CnD] a dish I make and some questions
I find that putting grated cheese melts just fine on top of scrambled eggs. Your cheese probably won't melt if you wait to put the cheese on top of your taco fixings and don't heat the whole thing. I use picante sauce, Pace, in three strengths of heat. This salsa has chopped vegetables in it. Tomorrow I am fixing a taco salad with ground beef, shredded carrot, sour cream and guacamole and of course Mexican four blend cheese. Of course the Pecante sauce is mixed with the hamburger.
