Turkey Tacos and Zicchini Corn Tacos with Homemade Refried Beans and Spanish Rice

Spanish Rice - Sauteed onion and green pepper; added garlic and rice; added chili powder. Put in rice cooker with 2 cups chicken broth instead of water.

Refried Beans - Placed everything in crock pot with 8.5 cups water. I would add more cumin and chili powder next time (a little bit more). Maybe try adding a can of diced chilis?

Zucchini Corn - Didn't follow measurements - used 1 zucchini and 1 tomato; frozen corn. Tasty!

For James, I just used ground turkey and taco seasoning.
