Lets make tacos!

Since being in Barcelona I have missed a good Taco a great deal. I tried buying the prepacked taco seasoning, however I did not enjoy the taste that much. Instead I realized that making your own seasoning for tacos is so easy. You need: 1 tablesppon of chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons of ground cumin, salt and pepper.

Simply mix all the ingredients in a bowl and add as much salt and pepper as you wish. And there you go there is your taco seasoning. You can either put this seasoning on sliced chicken or ground beef what ever you prefer. Grab a margarita to have a full mexican meal!

Homemade Pesto

Pesto is a great thing to have in the fridge so you can quickly cook pasta and have a tasty meal in minutes! The great thing about Pesto is that you can adjust the ingredients to your taste. The materials you need are…lots of basil (because this is base of the pesto), olive oil, salt and pepper, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts and garlic. You combine all the ingredients together and put as much or little olive oil as you want depending if you want a more liquid-y pesto or not. When all the ingredients are together in a bowl you blend them together. At home I make the pesto in a blender but at our apartment in Barcelona there is a handheld blender so I put the ingredients in a bowl. Once you have blended the ingredients into a smooth consistency taste it and decide if you want any more of anything. Enjoy!
