Thanks to
Carolyn's cousin Phyllis and her husband Len Hutchison for creating
and testing this for us! Note; while on a recent visit to their mountain cabin we
spend a significant amount of time testing this recipe and it is Gipson Approved.
Get an empty 1 gallon milk jug and into it pout the following:
(just buy a gallon of water and pour out what you do not need)
Two 12oz cans of frozen limeade / thaw them first
6oz of orange Curacao
6oz of Triple Sec
24oz of a really good Tequila (I use Hornitos)
Fill the jug with water and place in the refrigerator for a few hours and then ENJOY!!

TURKEY TACOS
This is soooo easy that you think it can’t be this good. But it is!!!
1 ½ pound ground turkey
1 10 oz. Jar your favorite chunky mild salsa
flour tortillas
cheese
shredded
lettuce
Brown the ground turkey – drain any liquid after the turkey is cooked. Add the whole bottle of salsa and heat through. Either steam your flour tortillas for a minute or two or microwave the tortillas until they’re warm and pliable. Assemble your tacos and enjoy! This is an extra fast meal for those times when you have very little time to prepare supper.
Refried beans and a little green salad are really good with this
