1-2 cups shredded cheddar, colby, or Mexican blend cheese
soft taco sized tortillas
optional: shredded lettuce, sour cream
Mash black beans with a fork. Add chicken, salsa, and cheese. Mix together.
Place a tortilla on a skillet heated to medium (or low-medium). Spread with 1/2 to 3/4 cup meat and bean mixture. Top with another tortilla. Flip quesadilla. Cut in fourths.
Serve with lettuce, sour cream, extra salsa and cheese. Makes 4 quesadillas.
**Tip: For even faster preparation, meat mixture can be put together and frozen. Just thaw, spread, and heat on the skillet.
The roomies.Not that we were ever actually in our room, aside from about 5 hours of “sleeping” time each night.
The food. Oh, the food! Perhaps it was because I didn’t have to cook it or clean up after it, but wow… the food! Thanks to Hunt’s for this delicious lunch.
The view. Oh my word, this hotel was an event all on it’s own. I tried, but simply could not capture the amazingness in my own photos. (This particular photo is taken looking up from our Hunt’s lunch.)
The new friends.Carrie and I lost our tribe on the way to lunch, but were super blessed to eat and chat with Robin and Sara. What fun to meet such amazing ladies throughout the weekend!
The view. Again. Looking down on lunch.
The built in exercise program. Walking forever to get anywhere was a joy in this beautiful hotel!
The silliness. Do you see it? We’re spelling A-M-Y!
The giggles. I think we were all delirious from lack of sleep by Saturday night. We marched our pajama-clothed selves down to the movie/karaoke/game night… right in front of a very nice night club filled with suit/tie/cocktail dressed patrons. Lovely! Afterward, a pow-wow in a hotel room where I laughed so hard with friends, including these two Amys. Amy from Amy Loves It, and Amy from Mom’s Toolbox.
Worth it? Oh, yes. Where do I sign up for next year?!
My Blissdom roomies: Phoebe, Kate, and Carrie. So much fun!

I really need to create a readership survey, because I have no idea how many of you are bloggers. Do you even care if I write about or link to blogging information? Hmmm… if you don’t, feel free to skim right past this post. For those of you who are interested, here are the sources [...]
Aside from a 5 month hiatus between my first and second children, I’ve been diapering kiddos for nearly 7 years straight! I can honestly say that diapers have been our biggest parenting expense. Clothes? Hand me downs. Toys? Gifts and garage sales. But diapers… there’s only so much you can bargain with those.
Good diaper deals [...]
Wow, you all have blown me away with your excitement for this challenge! 2010 is sure to bring fewer things in our homes, cluttering up our lives.
Remember, you’re setting your own rules and goals. I’m trying to rid my home of an average of 2 items per day this year. Maybe you want to get [...]
After reaping the benefits of monthly menu planning for the first time in January, I’m excited to do it again. Even more exciting, though? Most of my March menu is already planned by the lovely Tricia over at Once a Month Mom! I’m partnering with her this month to celebrate her 1 year Blogiversary. You [...]
Phoebe reminded me to be thankful, even when my crazy two year old has just dumped a whole bottle of kids’ body wash into the bath tub… again.
My kids’ bedrooms are a pit. Perhaps it’s time for a little friendly competition?
You know how I love my bloggy giveaways. Well, Metropolitan Mama has the best giveaways. [...]
Once-a-month cooking is something that has me intrigued, but I haven’t yet delved into it. Yet. Have you tried it? I guess I’ve just always loved the excuse that cooking gives me. Can’t sweep… busy cooking. Can’t dust… busy cooking. Can’t {fill in the blank}… busy cooking.
While cooking and baking do rank high on [...]
