Solar Power Charger

This little solar power charger Portable Power Station has come in handy just about daily. It came with its own solar panel that I just put in my front window. The front windows on my house have the sun on them all day long. I also have some USB powered Lights that I plug into this and hang up when the power goes out. Great item to have to be able to keep your cell phones charges and also use USB items, like the lights or Fans! This gets used daily.

Power Station!!

 I have had one of these for years, Schumacher Rechargeable AGM Jump Starter and Portable USB/DC Power Station - 1200 Amp - with Air Compressor and LED flex light. I keep it charged with my solar panels and use it to run things like a 19" tv for news in case of bad weather, charge my cell phone, and I have cooked on my Electric Hot Burner with this. It is a great thing to have on had. Not really a generator , per se, But , it does have inverter and stores power. Really comes in handy when power goes out for a bit.

Food Storage Recipe - Taco Salad

 

I am going to come out and say it - The Taco Salad from Taco Bell is one of my favorites! BUT , the Taco Bell in my town is not very good. Not sure why. The food sucks. Lettuce is always bad, food cold, etc. During lock down I got some of these  Taco Salad Bowl Pans to try out. I had to have my Taco Salads! LOL They were low cost enough that I decided to give them a try.

Tortillas are always in my freezer! Buy them on sale and freeze them. I take out how many I need for the taco salads and bake them up. Let them kind of thaw out for a couple of minutes before you try and push them into the taco salad pan.  Fill them with taco meat, refried beans , lettuce, and whatever else. Last night I did not have any sour cream so I used Ranch dressing. YUMMMMMM Easy to make and much better than going out. Probably cost less than a $1.00 to make one also.

Food Storage Recipe - Black Bean Burrito

 So simple to make and very low cost! A can of black beans that were 69 cents at grocery, tortillas that were on sale for 1.00 a pack, a small bit of rice, and small bit of shredded cheese. I cook up the black beans with a bit of taco seasoning and some of my frozen peppers and onions. Layer the rice, black beans , and cheese in a tortilla . Roll it up and fry it a bit in butter. YUMMY> lunch for us for a couple of dollars.
