I'm ready for another exciting weekend of football! This week we are making these yummy Taco Party Toasts. Taco meat, diced tomatoes and green chiles, Velveeta on top of party rye bread. SO good!!! PLUS you can make these Taco Party Toasts ahead of time and freeze until you are ready to serve. BOOM!

As I said, you can make these Taco Party Toasts ahead of time and freeze for later. I do this all the time and it is such a great time saver. Assemble the toasts and freeze unbaked. When you are ready to cook the toasts, take them out of the freezer and thaw completely before popping under the oven broiler. You can even speed the process along by thawing them in the microwave if you are pressed for time.

We love these Taco Party Toasts for tailgates, parties or a quick lunch and dinner. With only 5 ingredients, they are a breeze to whip up for any occasion. Give these a try for your next party! I promise you won't have any leftovers!!

I found this Butter Pecan Pound Cake recipe in one of my old cookbooks. The cake is made with cake mix and a can of frosting. It sounded SO interesting that I had to try it ASAP. WOW! It was delicious! SO moist and full of flavor. We both LOVED it.

There are only 5 ingredients in this cake - cake mix, water, oil, eggs and frosting. DO NOT make the cake mix as directed on the box. Only use the ingredients I listed below and follow those directions. You are going to use the cake mix DRY.

This Butter Pecan Pound Cake can be made a day or two in advance and stored in an air-tight container. Perfect for the holiday meal next week.

We served this Butter Pecan Pound Cake with some fresh whipped cream, caramel sauce and a few chopped pecans. We also ate it with some vanilla ice cream. You can't go wrong with either one! This would be a perfect ending to your holiday meal next week.
