Informative Essay Brainstorm

I am considering writing about what I know best-agriculture. I would like to focus on a topic that I know a lot about. I am considering writing about plant breeding. This subject greatly appeals to me because I am considering a career in plant breeding. My essay will focus on the history of plant breeding, the importance of plant breeding, and the future of where it will take our world.

Another topic I am considering is apples. I know this sounds kind of odd, but hear me out. Apples have a unique history and genetic make-up. It is extremely interesting to learn about. More than 17,000 varieties of apples exist in the world because of the almost unlimited amount of genetic combinations. The story of how apples came to America is also fascinating. I don’t know what my third topic about apples will be, but I’m sure something exists.

Classmates, Mr. Lister, and other blog frequenters, feel free to help me to decide what topic I should write about by commenting. It needs to pass the “so what” test, so your opinion is valued. I am genuinely torn between these two subjects. Plant breeding is a very broad topic, so finding research will not be difficult. However, writing about apples excites me (I’m a farming nerd, I suppose). I feel like I could make it very interesting, yet finding materials to include might be tough. Please aid me in my decision! Thanks!

How to Prepare Tacos!

Tacos are always a great choice for a meal. They are fairly cheap, simple, and best of all, taste delicious! This tutorial will ignite you inner Tex-Mex heritage.

First, you must gather ingredients for your tacos. You will need ground meat (pork or beef), taco shells (soft or hard), seasoning, and toppings. Toppings will be varied depending on what you like. Common toppings for tacos include lettuce, cheddar cheese, sour cream, tomatoes, and salsa.

After you have gathered these ingredients, you must cook the meat. The traditional way is to brown it in a sauce pan. This will involve dumping the meat into the pan. Before turning on the burner, mash it up with a fork. After it is mashed, turn the burner to medium-low heat. Continuously mash the meat keeping it in small chunks. The meat is done when it turns completely brown. To avoid sicknesses, make sure the meat is completely cooked. Next, add the seasoning packet (or make your own with an online recipe). This usually involves putting in a half cup of water with it. Then, bring out the shells. Chop up the necessary toppings such as lettuce and tomatoes. Put the other toppings in bowls for people to add what they prefer. To prepare the actual taco, lay the shell flat and dump a couple tablespoons of cheese on it. Then, add a couple spoonfuls of meat on top. You may add the toppings yourself or let guest do this.

The final-and most important- step is to enjoy your tacos! Indulge in the perfect mix of spices and toppings. When unsure about what to make, use my motto- when in doubt, put the tacos out! J
