     Well my husband is home for two weeks and I have decided that I am really enjoying all the eating I have been doing. I haven't been going completely overboard but I am enjoying eating Mexican food and all the cheesy, ricey glory Mr. Salsa has! I haven't been exercising either so needless to say, I'm a little fluffy around the mid section this week. Not worried.... I will return to normal next week when I don't dare take the kids to eat by myself.
     Here is the recipe! I took the original recipe from Pinterest and tweaked it!

     And note***** My power went out halfway through cooking it for about 10 minutes so I am not 100% sure of the cook time. My expert opinion is the 45 minutes though! ENJOY!
