      I made this recently as well and thought it was very good. Your version sounds delicious! (although I’d skip the guac ;])

      At our Meijer, 1 pound of ground beef sells for $1 at 8pm at night. The sell by date isn’t for a few days and the meat is really good.

      This has become one of our family’s favorites! With 9 kids to feed, I love that one skillet can be used for the entire meal, just adding a quick side dish! It’s even better the next day for lunch.

      I am going to start following the weight watchers plan at home. I am on a strict budget and will don’t now how to cook. I was wondering could anyone help me out with filling sandwiches, & any other quick budget firendly meals you can think of that can be done in the slow cooker or quick skillet meals.
