Tonight was technically left over night, woo-hoo!! But since the leftovers that were available was tortilla soup, I got inspired and whipped up a little something “extra” to have with it. I don’t know if y’all remember that some time back…. like a LONG time ago, when I was a young whipper snapper in college, Taco Bell had these cool cinnamon sugar crunchy things that you could buy. I didn’t get them often, but I enjoyed the crispy sweetness from time to time. I don’t think they have them any more??? I haven’t been at Taco Bell for quite some time, though the other day I had a HUGE Taco Bell craving! That was strange!
Anyway, I was trying to go for something like those crisps so here’s what I did. While the soup was on the stove reheating I grabbed some flour tortillas from the fridge and quickly sprayed each one with some veggie cooking spray. I was going to actually butter them, but I was in a hurry. Then I sprinkled them well with cinnamon and sugar. Got out my handy-dandy pizza cutter and sliced them into wedges before putting them on a baking sheet. I then left them in the oven at about 350ish for a few minutes while I dished up the soup and fixed chocolate milk for the lads.
I have to say that I was pleased with the result!! they were crispy without being TOO crispy and were very good! The perfect end to a spicyish mexicanish dish! Yum!! 
I won’t bore you with a recitation of the other parts of my day. Qade had a rough one, and though I felt “lost” a couple of times, I don’t think I actually lost it like I did on Monday, so that’s progress!! Tomorrow is a new day and a Friday to boot, so this is good!!!!! I have planned for Stu to grill tomorrow, so that’ll be almost like 2 days off in a row for me. Hee hee!! Though even when we do have leftovers I still “fix” them for the fam. Can’t help myself somehow!
Now the boys are splashing away the last of their cinnamon sugar in a lavendery bath while Stu watches from the safe side of the curtain. 
They aren’t allowed to ‘splash’ unless the curtain is closed and most of the time they do really well with that. I will admit that I’m looking forward to getting them in bed, and just putting my feet up for a little relaxification this evening. I even contemplated making some decaf and REALLY enjoying it, but I think I’m too lazy!
I was perusing the Pioneer Woman‘s recipes today! Ugh!! She always takes such yummy looking pictures to go along with her recipes that I got off the computer totally craving vanilla bean scones and fried round steak!!! Ha ha ha!! Not to mention the smashed potatoes! Wow! So now I have some dinner ideas for next week depending on what meat is on sale, but believe me I will be trying those scones as soon as I can get my grubby hands on some actual vanilla beans!!
Happy Friday friends! Hope that it ends up being a fantastic, fabulous, fun, fun, fun finale to your week!
Ahhh, I LOVE the Pioneer Woman’s website! I actually think three of my meals this week came from her site! HA! I love it! Oh, and I am definitely gonna try your cinnamon tortilla thing. Sounds delicious! And now I have a hankerin for Taco Bell! Which by the way, is one of my favorites! Too bad there is not one anywhere near me!
Yes, Taco Bell does still sell those cinnamon things
Emma is a BIG fan 
The Pioneer woman does have some great recipes!
Those cinnamon “crispies” are a must at our house when we have tortilla soup
