Started out with a cured salmon gravlax with chive potato blinis and sour cream. Then on to a roasted Guinea hen with a fantastic herbed spätzle and some fresh baby vegetables grilled over wild apple wood.
My wife went to the store to get some crawfish tail meat so I could make etouffee. They were out, so she came home with a couple of pounds of live crawfish and no fixings to go with them.
At least I had a package of Zatarains crawfish boil so they came out OK - but no potatos or corn in the pot.

I made chicken and re-fried bean soft tacos, pretty simple, doesn't require a lot of effort but they are still really good.
Gravlax, blinis, guinea hen, spatzle ... wild apple wood? ...
Is that you Robin Leach?
I think tomorrow is taco day, that sounds good.
The lady of the house fancies herself a regular Julia Child. I can deal with it.

Here is my college student budget recipe for simple, quick, and excellent chicken and bean mix for tacos, burritos, or enchiladas.
It might sound weird to use canned stuff but tastes wonderful and is sooooo simple to make.
1 can of chicken (the big size, like the big tuna cans)
1 can of refried beans
Hotsauce (any kind)
Salt, Pepper, chili powder, and some tabasco sauce
Drain the can of chicken and put into a medium size pot on medium to high heat, add salt, pepper, chili powder and tabasco (I just kinda do two or three shakes of each)
Pour some of the salsa in with the chicken, about 2 or 3 spoonfulls, let it heat while you are opening the beans.
Put the beans in and mix together. Let that heat up for a little bit. If you want it a little bit more runny add some more salsa to it.
Get your taco shells or tortillas and make what ever you want, I usually just top with some shredded cheese and a little bit of salsa. But you can do what ever you like.
That recipe will make about 3 or 4 good size soft tacos, if you need more just double the stuff. The leftovers are very useful.
This also makes excellent enchilada filling which i usually just put a can of enchilada sauce or queso over them and they are wonderful, since all you have to do is make the mix, put together the enchiladas, put them in a pyrex dish, pour over the sauce and let it heat for a little bit since everything is already cooked.
One other thing I have done is there is a box of cheesy spanish rice (don't remember the brand) in the same place you get the taco stuff, I have used that as a side to my soft tacos then when I put the left overs up I mixed the rice and the filling together and the next night I used that for enchilada filling.
