Cinco de Mayo!


taco night!

It's that time of year again. Cinco de Mayo is a favorite holiday for me because of all the great food. It can become a week of food in my house.

I make tacos at the beginning of the week. I cook the meat and add a spoonful to a soft shell. I usually make a batch big enough to fill 30 tacos. Then I freeze about 8 in a large ziploc bag. This way, all I have to do is defrost and fry. I fry them in vegetable oil. Serve them with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot sauce, taco sauce, and sour cream. YUM!

Side dishes? We can honestly make a whole meal out of tacos. Side dishes are for another day. Simply serve tacos with fried rice and chips and salsa.
