    Sep 8, 2022 | Food, Lunch, Tamela's Tailgate Treats

    Let’s get to the BBQ Pulled Pork/Chicken Sandwiches for the next Tailgate party!

    Ingredients

    For the Meat

    • 3/4 Pounds of pork shoulder (tenderloin or butt) or Boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs

    For the Dry Rub

    • 2 tablespoons salt
    • 2 tablespoons black pepper
    • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
    • 1/2 tablespoon paprika
    • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 1/2 pack onion soup mix
    • 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
    • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
    • 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard

    For the Cooking Liquid

    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/4cup apple cider vinegar
    • 1/2cup ketchup
    • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 cup BBQ sauce of choice (I use Sweet Baby Rays)
    • 1 teaspoon mustard
    • 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
    • Trinity mix diced finely (onion, garlic, bell peppers, celery, parsley)

     

    Cooking Instructions

     

    • In a small bowl, mix the Texas dry rub ingredients together.
    • Cut any excess fat from the pork shoulder. Pound with a meat tenderizer or poke both sides with a fork.
    • Apply the Texas dry rub on all sides of the pork shoulder. You don’t have to use all of the dry rub – only use enough to cover the entire pork. Place the pork shoulder in the slow cooker.
    • In another bowl, mix all of the cooking liquid ingredients together. Pour the liquid into the slow cooker on top of the pork.
    • Cook on low heat for at least 8 hours or until tender.
    • Once the pork is finished cooking, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using forks. Should be easy when it is nice and tender!
    • Add additional BBQ sauce if desired and top with coleslaw!
    • Serve with hamburger buns, over nachos, on a baked potato, and more.

    So, I don’t eat guacamole, but I’ve been playing around with a recipe for the past 3 years. And my village absolutely loves this recipe—especially my darling Carly-Faith! She eats avocado daily, so this recipe is on the table at least twice a week. Check it out:

    Ingredients

    • 4 avocados
    • 1/2 of red onion diced very fine
    • 1.5 Roman tomatoes dice fine
    • 4 tablespoons of cilantro (fresh if possible)
    • 1 jalapeño pepper (optional)
    • 2 cloves of garlic minced finely 
    • 2 fresh limes juiced
    • 1/2 fresh lemon juiced
    • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
    • 2 boiled eggs diced fine(optional) 
    • 3 dashes of Onion powder
    • 3 dashes of Garlic powder 
    • 3 dashed Parsley 
    • A pinch of Black Pepper
    • 2 dashes of Cumin
    • 2 dashes of paprika

     When you mix it all up and try it on crackers, chips, or bread… let me know!

    Busy Mom Breakfast Burritos

    Busy Mom Breakfast Burritos

    Jun 13, 2022 | Breakfast, Food

    For being the most important meal of the day, breakfast can be such a chug to make! With 5 kiddos and a hungry football husband to feed every morning, I rely on quick and filling breakfast recipes that get the day started without a huge time commitment.

    This breakfast burrito recipe is one of my favorites because you can make a ton at a time, and it is easy to tweak based on your family’s food preferences.  Check it out:

    Ingredients

    • 2 large eggs per person
    • 1 package of breakfast sausage or bacon
    • 1 jar of salsa (I’m a spicy girl who loves a green chili, but don’t be scared to go with mild if that’s more your style)
    • 1 pack of shredded cheese (Mexican blend is my favorite)
    • Flour tortillas 

    Instructions

    • Cook your preferred meat all the way through in a pan over the stove. Make sure to drain the fat off when necessary.
    • Put your eggs in a bowl and scramble with a pinch of salt and pepper, a dash of milk, and if you’re feeling fancy, some parsley.
    • Put out tortillas and layer ingredients (including eggs, meat, salsa, and cheese) into each tortilla. Be sure not to overfill!
    • Fold and roll your tortillas, lining them up on a baking sheet.
    • Bake in the oven for 8 minutes at 350 degrees. Once they come out, brush a bit of melted butter on the outside to keep them soft

    • Special Bonus Step: Wrap a couple of extras in Press and Seal and pop into the freezer. Now you have an even quicker breakfast on-the-go that only takes 2 minutes in the microwave to be ready to eat!

    The Best Tuna Salad (Quick Lunch)

    Mar 25, 2022 | Food, Lunch

    The Best Tuna Salad (Quick Lunch)

    I absolutely love tuna salad! It’s a great, quick snack or lunch option. You can add it to a lettuce salad, eat it with crackers, make a sandwich out of it, and the list goes on. That’s why it works so well for my family.

    Although a little untraditional, I like to think I have one of the best, most delicious  tuna salad recipes. Check it out…

    Ingredients

    • 4 (5 oz) cans of tuna (You can cook a tuna fish and make it from scratch, if you prefer.)
    • ½ of lemon
    • 2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
    • 2 Tbsps of parsley 
    • 2 Tbsps of yellow mustard 
    • 4-6 Tbsps of mayo (I use Primal Kitchen.) 
    • 1/2 cup of chopped red onions (optional) 
    • 1/4 cup of dill relish
    • 1/4 cup of sweet relish
    • 4 hard-boiled eggs
    • 1 Tsp seasoned salt

    Instructions

    1. After opening the cans of tuna, pour the tuna into a strainer and squeeze lemon juice over it. Then, rinse with water.
    2. Boil the eggs.
    3. Finely chop the celery, boiled eggs, red onions, and parsley.
    4. In a large bowl, combine mustard, sweet relish, dill relish, mayo, celery, parsley, eggs, onions, tuna, and seasonings and mix.
    5. To garnish, use one sliced boiled egg, and sprinkle a bit of paprika and parsley on top.
