When I was a newlywed the only entertainment we could afford (starving students) was going to other poor newleyweds’ houses for dinner, or having people over to ours. I remember my friend Sherry was such a divine cook for being only in her early 20s. She showed me how to make a good taco meat base. Thanks Sherry! (I still remember her homemade almond paste bear claws at my firstborn son’s baby shower she threw….I dream about those things!)
Tacos…mmm |
After frying up the ground hamburger, she used a small can of green chili salsa and a packet of Lawry’s Taco Seasoning. That was in the early 80s before there were so many different kinds of salsas. I have since used any kind of salsa that strikes my fancy with the packet of seasoning mix added. It makes a really good taco meat.
Tacos with all the fixins…. |
Fried up with corn tortillas (Have you ever tasted homemade, thick corn tortillas….they are to die for!) and topped with your choice of yummy veggies and sour cream, they are a guilty pleasure…..for sure.
