The Hungry Apple

How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was relaxing. It started off at this new-ish brewery in Franklin with their delicious Portly Stout and a pleasantly hoppy Another Way to Rye. Yum. Check them out if you haven’t already.

In other eventful domestic  exciting news, I’ve gotten rid of another packet of seasoning!

I’ve always been a fan of a certain fajita seasoning packet but as usual, I didn’t like what was in the ingredient list.

Now, at my house,  fajita seasoning is homemade and I control the spices. After you mix these guys together, you’ll have a fast meal ahead of you.

I served ours with Cheesy Mexican Rice
