One of the appys that I am in the process of making and freezing tastes like a mini taco with the "shell" being meat and taco seasoning which you put in mini-muffin tins like you would a flour crust. You mix together sour cream, crushed tortilla chips and a small amount of taco sauce and place...

Food Humor Buffalo meat is getting more popular. I suppose soon we can expect cold cuts made from it -- possibly called "buffaloney." Try a rice cake? The only way you know you're eating something is when you open your mouth to talk, stuff floats out. It's called "fast" food because...
