Ok im done drooling. I'll share some of my favorite recipe ideas to help instead of drool lol:

Chile is one of my favorite things to make! Take 1lb ground beef and brown it in a pan then drain most of the grease but not all bc that adds some flavor. Dice 2 green peppers, 1 medium onion, 1-2 cloves of garlic and a jalapeno pepper. Add it into the pan and let them get soft. I add some water and put a cover on and let it go for awhile. Then once theyre lookin good add 2 8.5 ounce cans of diced tomatoes and 1 or 2 cans of kidney beans. I use kidney but you can use others like navy beans too. I then add like 2 cups of water or until it gets to the right thickness. It will thicken up a bit while you let is simmer too, keep that in mind. Then just add chili powder to taste. Add a dash of cumin, garlic powder, or onion powder too if youd like. Also if you like it hotter add some hot sauce. I served it in a bowl over shells (as in the pasta lol) or rice. Sprinkle mexican cheese over it. And if im feeling really ambitious ill make some corn bread to go along with it too haha.

Another good recipe for chicken is my version of like a teryaki chicken. Cut up chicken breasts into bite size cubes or strips and cook them in a large frying pan. Add whatever veggies you like. I usually do broccoli, green peppers, onions, and sliced carrots. Put them in the pan with the chicken and cook them until they get soft. Also put in the pan teryaki sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, a squeeze of honey, and anything else you think may taste good lol. I usually make it up as i go to an extent. Once it all cooked and smelling good serve it over rice.

For a mexican twist on chicken cook chicken breasts in a skillet. Once theyre almost cooked pour a can of salsa right into the pan over the chicken. Use any type you like, mild med. or hot) depending on heat preference. Add a chopped jalepeno or some hot sauce if you want some more kick. Chop up an onion and a pepper too if you want some more veggies, even though i know theyre already in the salsa lol. I usually take out the breasts and sprinkle mexican cheese over them. Then serve it with rice and beans. Spoon some of the salsa/veggie mix right over the rice and beans. The bland rice and beans takes a bit of the heat from the salsa depending on how hot it is.

I hope some of these help ya out! If ithink of more ill put them up. These are 3 of my favorites. By no means am i a gourmet chef but i like to think my style of wingin' it works pretty well lol.
