meg's mom's margaritas

Photobucket

this is probably a popular recipe, but the first place i saw it was here. so good! it made a lot. think house full of your best besties. definitely for more than just me and the hubs. look at the blender, pitcher, and my cup. i didn't even use half of the beer.

speaking of which... don't knock my selection of beer. it's the only kind i was allowed to use. ha! maybe now that we know it's this good, we can use something else. maybe :)

it went perfectly with this.

my staple. i make this at least once a week, usually twice. it's healthy AND delicious. i got the recipe for the rice here. it tastes just as good as the real thing (i think so anyways). i use brown rice and add a can of black beans that have been drained and rinsed. today i added chicken... the rotisserie kind from raley's. i bought it for something and didn't use it, so on a whim i added it. mmmmm!!

i'm looking forward to the kids going to bed, putting my feet up, and sipping on my margarita. it's not quiet at all tonight. in fact, noise is coming from every room in the house. but i'm okay with that. :)
