Tacos can be funny….
Tacos can be delicious…
And tacos can be easy. I have several “go to” meals that I use when I’m in a time crunch or an “I don’t want to cook tonight” crunch. A taco salad is one of them. Give it 15 minutes and a few skillets and you are set with a great dinner.
Plus, you have a built in joke next time you make dinner…people will taco bout it for days!
You will have a tasty dinner that is ready in no time- you will nacho what hit you!
