Summer

Summer is here once again! That means when it gets too hot we need to cool down! Best way to cool down?
Here are some:
Lay on tile or wood floor
Drink Lemonade or Water
Eat ice cream or some popsicles
Go swimming
Run through the sprinklers
Have a water balloon fight
Stay inside where there is AC
Go for a car ride with all the windows down

And so much more! Hopefully you're staying cool this summer!!

Kiwi Strawberry Smoothie

I've been getting into smoothies again! Here's my latest smoothie recipe and it's so easy! Only three ingredients and then blend! It makes about two servings and you can freeze it if needed. The flavor is so yummy and it's super thick, so you can add some milk if it's too much for you. I am in love with this one!

Here's what you need:
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 kiwi (skin removed and chopped into chunks)

Blend it all together in a blender and pour the pink mixture into a glass! Feel free to get creative and customize it any way you'd like! Let me know what you think in the comments!! Enjoy!

Chicken Taco Wraps

Hello guys! How are you? So today I'm posting a late taco Tuesday recipe that I actually made Wednesday because I didn't have time yesterday. Ooooooppppsss..... sorry guys! But you'll have it in time for next Tuesday am I right? Also I'm gonna try something new, because when you find most recipes online and you scroll to the end it has all the info, but Grace and I don't do that. Why? Well different post and I'm sure you don't wanna read that yeah boring! SNOOZE!

Onto the tacos wraps!

I originally was gonna make some Ranch Chicken Wraps but then decided against it. I might make them a different time, but I didn't this time. I still wanted to make chicken wraps so I got chicken out and started chopping. I chopped in about 1-2 inch cubes. I chopped up 2 whole chicken breasts, and that was enough for 3 people. There was extra chicken in the end, but I just used it to make a quesadilla later on. Preheat the oven to 350

After I chopped them up I dumped them into a stir fry pan and let them cook. Then I added taco seasoning, you can pick whichever seasonings you choose. Let that cook until it's done, make sure there is some extra juices at the bottom, because you will need that. 

Get the tortillas out , cheese, and a 9x13 pan. Grease the pan, and grab a spoon. Lay a single tortilla down, then sprinkle cheese on it, add chicken, pour small amount of juice from pan, finally roll up and set in the pan. But don't add too much fillings! Repeat that until the pan is full and stick into the oven. Let them cook until the desired crispness on the tortillas. ENJOY!!!

Fresh Made Cookies? Or no?

We bought some pre-made cookie dough, I do love myself some fresh cookies (honestly, I don't really like cookies that much, favorite: no bake [no coconut though ewww] and peanut butter, I'll eat chocolate chip ones, but I am really picky about them).

I thought about making them earlier this afternoon, but I decided to make dog treats. Then I didn't make the dog treats, because I didn't have what I needed to make them. Instead I cleaned the cupboard. My dad made dinner and afterwards when we were sitting around talking, my dad was asking for cookies. So we cleaned up that table, and I started the cookies. The cookies luckily only took around 12 minutes, because we like the GOOEY!

How do you like your cookies? Comment down below and tell me!
1: Gooey
2: Crispy
3: dipped in milk
5: ice cream sandwich!
6: ew no cookies!
7: other (please tell)
