3 cups vanilla ice cream
1 1/2 cups milk
8 Oreo cookies
Combine the ice cream and milk in a blender and mix on low speed until smooth.
Break Oreo cookies into pieces while adding them to the blender. Mix on low speed for 5 to 10 seconds or until the cookies are mostly pureed into the shake, but a few larger pieces remain. Use a spoon to break up any larger chunks.
Pour shake into two glasses.

I’ve never eaten at a Jack In The Box, but I love tacos. This easy recipe is sure to keep your family happy and prevent them from having to make a run for the border !

1 lb ground beef
1/3 cup refried beans
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbs chili powder
1/4 cup Ortega or pico pica mild, taco sauce
12 soft corn tortillas
3 cups cooking oil, Crisco brand
6 slices American cheese
1 head lettuce, chop fine

Brown the beef over low heat, use a wooden spoon to chop and stir the meat. When the beef is brown drain the fat. Add the refried beans and use the wooden spoon to mash the whole beans into the mixture to create a smooth texture.

Add the salt, chili powder and 2 Tbs of taco sauce to the mixture. Remove from the heat. In another skillet heat 1/4 inch of oil until hot.

Spread 1/2 of the beef mixture on the center of each corn tortilla. Fold the tortillas over and press so that the beef filling holds the sides together. Drop each taco into the pan of hot oil and fry on both sides until crispy. When cooked remove the tacos from the oil and place them on a rack or some paper towels until they cool.

Slightly pry open add 1/2 slice American cheese and some lettuce. top with about 1/2 tsp of the remaining taco sauce.
