Baked Beef Taquitos Recipe

Hi my loves!!!

I thought I would do a different kind of post today.  A recipe post.  WAHOO!!

Ingredients:

Olive oil cooking spray

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic

1 lb lean ground beef

1 cup salsa verde

tortillas

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Sour cream (optional)

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 400.  In a large skillet, heat a little bit of oil.  Add in onion and garlic.  Cook for about 3 mins.  Add the beef, breaking it up while it cooks, until it is no longer pink, about 5 mins.  Once beef is cooked, add in the salsa verde.  Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 mins.

2. Place the tortillas on a place and cover them with a damp paper towel.  Microwave them until warm and pliable, about 45 seconds.  Place mixture in tortilla, sprinkle with cheese and wrap.

3. Place them on a foil-lined baking sheet with the seam sides down.  Spray with a little bit of olive oil, then bake them until the filling is heated through and the tortillas are lightly browned, about 8 to 12 mins.  Serve them hot with sour cream and/or salsa.

I hope you enjoy :)

From my kitchen, your Erin xoxo

Hi my loves!!!

FOTD time

I curled my hair with a 1" curling iron.  Dont forget when you curl your hair with a curling iron or flat iron, let the curls cool down before combing them.

Hope you enjoy

Beautiful faces, your Erin :)

Working out and feeling great

Hi my loves!!!

So this week has been wonderful.  Been waking up 30 mins earlier than normal to workout.  I have been doing toning moves in the morning and running a mile + every afternoon.  Eating lean, clean and green as well.  Made baked beef taquitos last night that were amazing.  Let me know if you would like the recipe.  

Off to run, your Erin :)

Update about my skin care routine

Hi my loves!!!

I have been using my Clarisonic Mia 2 twice a day since I purchased it.  (When you first buy it, you need to charge it for 24 hours before first use)  It takes off ALL of my makeup.  Even the stubborn full coverage foundation.  I was using it with the cleanser that came with it when I bought it but I have been hearing so much about the Simple Skincare line that I had to try it.  

I have been using the Moisturizing Facial Wash morning and night.

I have very dry skin and this has dramatically helped.  I also use the 

Smoothing Facial Scrub twice a week at night before bed.

As a daily moisturizer, I have been using their Hydrating Light Moisturizer.

If you would like to see all of the products that they have, click here.

Just remember, beautiful makeup starts with beautiful skin.

Hydrated skin and happiness, your Erin :)
