oven tacos. who knew?
one day i was perusing on pinterest and happened upon a picture. ^^^ there it is. and we love the tacos around here so i got busy making them. only the link on pinterest didn't work and don't you hate that?! i figured the picture was pretty self-explanatory so i got busy making them and i will bore you my testimony on this: these tacos will change the way you make them forever!
here's the thing about tacos and small children - it can be a mess. soft shell, hard shell - it doesn't matter. somehow boys will find a way to loose all their cheese or get it all over everything. and that is okay, for like, half the day, but by dinnertime, i am over it.
well anyway, i made these last week. all you have to do is make up the taco meat however you like it, and stuff it in the shells all nice and happy. add some shredded cheese, and put as many as you can fit into 9 x 13 oven dishes and slide into a pre-heated 350 degree oven. the 9 x 13 dish holds about 12 tacos.
let warm for about 8-10 minutes, or until the shells are warmed and the cheese has melted. now, add whatever you like on top - we added diced tomato, chopped lettuce, green onion, and fresh cilantro, with a little baby-spoon sized dollop of sour cream on top.
the taco shells literally warm themselves around the meat and melted cheese, so everything stays put when you crunch into it. there isn't nearly as much mess and i don't know: they just tasted better!
so, there you go.
what ever we would do now without pinterest?!
go make some tacos!

Where'd your post about buying boy clothes go?? I had the awesomest comment ever ...
Hmmmm. Did you come from Circle of Moms? I wrote a post for them on the subject a little while ago. Maybe that's where it is??
