Using spatula make small puncture for air. Place 1 large rounded spoon of beef mizture on half of tortilla then fold over. Cook on one side until crisp. Turn over and cook till crisp. Place on end in a paper towel lined bowl until oil drains off. You can usually cook 4 tacos at a time. Serve with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and sour cream.

Philly Chicken

I'm so excited for this new recipe blog! For my first post I would like to share my mother-in-law Bonnie's Philly Chicken recipe. It's super easy and super yummy! It's also a crock pot meal which makes it perfect to fix before church and have it hot and ready when you get home. It's also just perfect to fix while the kids are down for their afternoon nap and then viola! It's ready just in time for dinner!

1- 16 oz. container sour cream
1-8 oz. container Philly cream cheese
1 dry packet of Italian dressing (I like "zesty Italian" because it gives it a bit of a tangy taste)
1 can cream of chicken soup
4 medium chicken breasts (frozen is fine)
Spaghetti or fettuccine noodle

Add all of the ingredients in a large crock pot. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. Use fork to cut chicken into bite sized pieces. Serve over prepared noodles. Top with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy!
