‘Tis the season for tacos.
Okay, okay, tacos don’t have a season, but if they did, we're nominating summer as the clear winner. There’s something about warm weather, festivals, food trucks, beaches, sun dresses, flip-flops, and marg sipping on a patio that sets the stage for taco consuming. We mean, you could eat a fish taco in the middle of winter, but it kind of looses it pizazz, don’t you think?
Tacos are made for the heat because we can demolish seventeen of them (maybe a slight exaggeration. maybe) and not feel like we are going to roll over like an armadillo and die of the meat sweats. See, a taco is this evenly portioned vehicle that allows you to decide on your fullness speed. It quite possibly is the greatness food invention ever, besides the tater tot, naturally.
So, today, we thought we would share with you our most recent and current obsession taco recipe. Do you remember going to the state fair in the summer and they would have a zillion options for chili cheese covered items? Hot dogs, nachos, fries, etc. Well, we had a nostalgic craving last week and decided to add chili cheese to some tacos.
The verdedict? Mind blowing. The chorizo mixed with ground beef topped with chili, cheese, jalapenos, and the piece de resistance, Frito’s makes for a nostalgic explosion of modern proportions.
BUT! You can’t eat an epic chili cheese taco without washing it down with a little giggle juice. This may be a favorite deal in town, our friends. Chipotle Mexican Grill is kicking off summer and celebrating every Thursday in July from 4-8pm and will offer a two-for-one deal on Patron margarita! Epic, right?
So make these tacos, stop by Chipotle for a marg, and watch the armadillos walk on by.
