Taco Night



Delicious Delicious

Tom and I were feeling nostalgic about taco nights when you were a kid and got to make your own tacos. Set these fillings up and any more you like and have a great Mexican night with friends.

Salsa or Pico de Gallo

Guacamole or fresh avacado slices

Black beans simmered with diced red onion and cilantro

Swiss Chard sauteed with garlic, cumin and chilles

This filling is good, sloppy, and recalls the classic taco filling without all the fat and meaty-ickyness:

Simmer one jar of taco sauce (if you buy a kit with hard or soft tacos they usually supply a packet of the stuff) and one TBS tomato paste in a pan on medium heat, add 1/2 cup frozen sweet corn and your favorite textured vegetable protein. Cook until thickened. Add hot sauce and scallions and serve hot!
