We made tacos for dinner

We made tacos! Rachelle made guacamole (although since she’s not feeling the greatest still, we got a mix… usually she makes it from scratch), and chopped up red peppers, onions, and tomatoes in with it. We grated cheddar cheese and smoked fontina (a spanish cheese), chopped lettuce, red peppers, tomatoes, and onions for toppings, made canned black refried beans, and browned hamburger meat seasoned with a mix, onions, and red peppers. We bought pre-made corn taco shells.

Charlie made Horchata, which was very tasty. It’s a sweet rice and cinnamon sweet drink from Mexico. We make it with skim milk to really bring out the cinnamon flavor. Yum!

Other than some issues with produce (the avocados were a little iffy, and the lettuce and tomato were limp), the meal turned out to be very good. We ate until we were stuffed!

We didn’t really use any set recipe, just Rachelle’s experience making tacos.
