THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Thank you, hard taco shells for surviving the long journey from factory to suppermarket, to my plate and then breaking the moment I put something inside of you.Thank you !
Jimmy Fallon
I love tacos, but these days I have them in the form of a salad more than not. It’s easier for me to mix up a Taco Salad . So I will definitely celebrate taco day!
Although I do have leftover soup here, I’m going to make a taco salad today and thought I’d share the recipe
Taco Salad
Makes 6 servings
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 envelope taco seasoning
3/4 cup water
1 head of iceberg lettuce, torn
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups broken nacho flavored tortilla chips
1/4 cup Catalina salad dressing
In a large skillet cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles, drain. Stir in taco seasoning and water, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 4 to 5 minutes , stirring occasionally. Cool slightly
In a large bowl, toss lettuce with cheese. Top with beef mixture and chips, drizzle with dressing and toss to combine. Serve immediately.
I always add some beans to mine too, but will definitely cut this recipe in half, because I don’t need anymore leftovers. Taco salad is good paired with Mexican rice or spicy refried beans. I will enjoy mine with some Spanish rice today. The pictures today were taken at DS#5’s house on Trick or Treat night. We always gather for dinner before the kids go out.
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday !
Life is better with Tacos!

Taco's a like a meal in a tortilla.
I love taco salads! I've only green leaf lettuce and no taco sauce, but that's what's for lunch.
Funny quote by Jimmy Fallon. Yep, I'm always reluctant to eat a taco in public. Makes me wonder why places don't offer their patrons a big bib like they do with lobster.
I am with Mev here. We do like taco salads. funny this, where I was raised we never even heard of a taco. I was probably in my30s before I saw one. Strange they were ot part of any military chow hall I remember.
Enjoy the family pictures. From Florida, Sherry & jack
I did not know it was National Taco day. I like taco's. ☺ So the prayer at the beginning of your post today - I love that - did you write that yourself?
