I had some leftover cooked ground beef in the fridge that I needed to use up. I was in the mood for something Mexican, but I am out of tortilla shells and lettuce....so that meant no taco salad or burritos. I decided to experiment a little. I cooked up some couscous, mixed in the ground beef, some diced tomatoes and green peppers, a couple spoonfuls of salsa, and some diced cheddar cheese (I am also out of shredded cheese). It was surprisingly better than I was expecting. Like the best "gunk" of a taco salad or nachos, without any lettuce or chips.
My dinners get creative when I am running low on food in the fridge and pantry. Tomorrow (or Tuesday) will be grocery shopping day :-)
