Taco Tuesdays

Simple, cheap, filling, flexible, fun and easy ingredients to keep on hand. Everyone seems to love it!  Most of the time with ground turkey. But, that's the beauty of tacos - there are so many ways to make them. Chicken breast in a crock pit all day with salsa and taco seasoning (thanks Becky), ground beef, ground turkey, steak, fish...  We usually do taco salad with chips for the kids because it's easy. During Phase 1 we just do lettuce and after that if we want carbs we use wheat tortillas. Hard shell if you really want a treat to change it up for the kids.  One twist:  I grew up eating on my taco salad was Spicy V8 juice instead of salsa. It may sound weird but we all loved it and think its worth a try. 

Another thing I love about Taco Tuesday is Taco Eggs Wednesday. I usually make extra taco meat to have with eggs the next morning. 
 
Just heat whatever meat and onions are left. 

Add as many eggs as you need and pan scramble. 

Top with cheese and either leftover or fresh chopped tomato. Lightly dust with salt and extra tasty and easy breakfast.
