Take-out Tuesday, Amped Up Taco Tuesday!
We often have tacos during the week
The boys love them and they are so easy to make
We have made them in a variety of ways
Loaded Chicken and Vegetable Taco Bake
Baked Ground Beef and Refried Beans Tacos
Taco Salad is my personal favorite
And I love Taco Soup
We’ve even made a Taco Bread Boat
But when I suggested tacos last week
I had no idea HHjr was going to surprise me with this!
He started with a layer of Knorr Taco Rice
Topped with taco seasoned ground beef
Then a lightly fried flour tortilla
Warm cheese queso was poured over the stack
And he topped it with chopped tomatoes and chives
Heaven!

Jenna, how nice to have a chef in the house to whip up fabulous dishes. This really looks great, my son and DIL would love this and I am going to share the recipe with them. Happy Tuesday, looks like a rainy and windy one!
Thank you Pam, we have so much fun trying to out cook each other 😂 I arranged my schedule so I could stay home today, I hate to go out in the rain!
Jenna, my family loves tacos, and all of these dishes look wonderful. The one your son made looks most scrumptious! I’ll have to try it. Thanks for sharing!

Now I want to make some tacos for dinner tonight. What would you use to top shredded pork roast?
red or white BBQ sauce! Or queso!
or blue cheese coleslaw or corn kernels!
Thanks.
Oh your tacos look so good. My daughter will be home this weekend for her college break and tacos is one of her favorites. Thanks for giving me the idea to make them! Hope you enjoy the week Jenna.

These all look great, but I love the taco bread boat!
