Last night I made dinner for my family and when I asked everybody what they wanted, they responded with tacos. So I chose to make fish tacos for everyone but with a variety of fish. My mother had salmon, I had Mahi-Mahi, and my dad had tilapia. I heated up flour and corn tortillas, set out a bowl of cheese, lettuce, chopped tomatoes, avocado, salsa and hot sauce. My parents loved the dinner and we ended up not leaving a crumb.

Breakfast for the Family
I treated my family to breakfast this past week and they enjoyed it. I made large omelettes with what they wanted and fruit smoothies. My father chose to have bacon, sausage, jalapeno peppers, and green chilis. My mother had swiss cheese, bacon, spinach and green peppers. My father and mother had smoothies with bananas, strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries.

Mexican Lasagna
My family made a Mexican Lasagna this past week and everybody devoured it in minutes. My aunt surprised the family with this dish because we were all just hanging out at my grandmother's house and she arrived with this. It was gone in less then half an hour. Even the picky eaters of my family ate this.

4 cups of Colby-Monterey Jack cheese (16 ounces)
1 jar of mild salsa
2 cups of water
2 cups of sour cream (16 ounces)
