New Blog Series

I'm trying to get this blog a wee-bit more organized, trying to find my niches to blog about so it isn't all sorts of random. Of course I will blog about Nate and I, the pups, our families, and daily lives. But I also want to have a structured time line of things to post about! So here is the schedule:

Monday: Make It Monday, where I will share a craft/project

Tuesday: Teach It Tuesday, where I will share Kindergarten things from my classroom

Wednesday: What I Wore Wednesday, where I will share a fashion post

Thursday: Things for the Home Thursday, where I will share a home decor/organization/storage/etc. tip

Friday: Food for Friday, where I will share a recipe from the week!


The weekends will be freebie days, where it will be random :) but also awesome!

Here's hoping that I can stick to that schedule!

Bacon, Avocado, and Chicken Quesadillas

We are getting culinary over at the Johnson household! I just shared a yummy moist chocolate cake recipe yesterday. Tonight for dinner, we made these yummy creations I pinned on Pinterest from Kevin and Amanda.

Bacon, Avocado, and Chicken Quesadillas
(here's my abbreviated version: check out Kevin & Amanda's link for the actual recipe)

First, cut up some green onions (scallions) and saute them in bacon drippings (oh P.S., cook your bacon first!). Afterwards, add cubed chicken to the pan.

 Next, have all of your fill in goodies ready to go in an assembly line of sorts.

Rinse out the pan that you cooked your chicken in, add butter until "foamy", and then swirl around your flour tortilla in the bottom. Next, add your yummy ingredients!

Once it's all yummy golden brown, flip it over with a pair of tongs and give it a good ol' tap to let it seal. We used a potato masher to give us a perfect seal!

Take it out of the pan and voila! A YUMMY, restaurant-worthy quesadilla!
