Yesterday's shredded beef tacos hit the spot right in the middle. Just gonna have to have them again tonight!
I shredded up some lettuce, diced up some really good sweet roma tomatoes, and added in some chopped red onion. Sprinkled with rice vinegar (would've been lime juice if I had a lime). With a little taco sauce on top that made a top topper to top my taco.
Looks like I have enough chuck roast left to freeze for lots of future tacos too, so I am a happy camper today.
Location: Lots of sun and palm trees with occasional hurricane :)

Good morning guys...sneaking in here from work for a minute.
SKBS.......I was started on Prevacid last August. Tried Nexium first but it didn't sit well with me so switched. I had just had a endoscopy because SOMETIMES...I had some heartburn. Well there's "esophagitis" and dr. said I will need to stay on Prevacid FOREVER. (we'll see about that). I'm having another endoscopy next July to check for improvement or worsening.
It's true about propping the head of the mattress. I even went and bought one of those tempurpedic mattresses with the adjustable foundation so it goes up, down, etc. Have not been able to sleep with the head up. Just keep sliding down and it hurts your lower back. I bought a wedge first which didn't work. If you want it, you can have it.
Maybe you can have the dr order a x-ray or CT and check for hiatal hernia. That can cause a lot of discomfort, depending on what food you eat.
I'm still trying to figure out how they diagnosed reflux without invasive testing. I would hate to be giving her proton inhibitors without definite proof.
Forgot to mention.........burping, coughing, hoarseness are all signs of reflux. I found that out the other day when I went to see a new pulmonologist. I had always thought that all that was due to my smoking but it was really due to the reflux I didn't know I had. (and I haven't had those symptoms since I quit 15 mths ago).
Tonight it is Chicken but I'm not sure how I am going to cook it. Going back to weight watchers today with 2 friends. United together we will weather............
All this talk about acid reflux. Mine has really been bad lately. I am on nexium but think I should make another trip to the doctors and try something else.
I do have a hiatal hernia as well.
I figured I'd stop in before my 3 mile walk on my treadmill.
DH wants the Buffalo Chicken Cutlets again that I had 2 weeks ago, he loved them. This time, I'm going to make them with Oven Roasted Potatoes w/spices. Yummy. Not sure on the veggie yet.
I spent the weekend at my daughter's and got to visit a Trader Joe's for the first time. It was not what I expected, although I enjoyed it just the same. It was smaller and tackier than I expected. I guess I was picturing a Whole Foods sort of experience. Anyway, I bought some really different things like frozen Chicken Cilantro wonton wraps and Thai Shrimp dumplings. Also frozen langostinos, which I've never found in my grocery stores. They sell 2buck Chuck there, which I've never tried, so all in all, it was a fun experience.
