Jaxsen

My name is Jaxsen and I am 7 years old.  Rainbow cam home with me in my Mom's car.  We played all evening.  We had a snack of Nachos. We got to stay up late because we didn't have school on Friday.  Friday was a special holiday, Veteran's Day.  On this day we honor all of the men and women who serve or have served in our armed forces.

Saturday we went shopping at Walmart.  We had lunch at Subway.  I had a roast beef sandwich, apple slices and chocolate milk.

On Sunday, my mom made us ravioli (stuffed pasta squares) and garlic bread for lunch.  I had a glass of one of my favorite drinks, Hawaiian Punch.

Here is a recipe for Nachos:

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 onion, finely diced
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
• 1 (14.5 ounce) package tortilla chips
• 1 fresh jalapeno pepper, sliced

Directions

1. In a large frying pan, brown ground beef with onion, salt and pepper over medium heat. Break the meat into very small pieces while it is cooking. After the meat is thoroughly cooked, drain off the grease.
2. Arrange chips on a microwavable platter. Spread beans over the chips. Layer with 1/2 of the cheese, the ground beef mixture, and remaining cheese. Arrange jalapeno peppers on top.
3. Microwave on medium-high until cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
