Taco Tuesday! One of my favorite days of the week. I’m a big taco lover and have been looking at ways to “clean” up my taco habit. Have you ever looked at the ingredients on the “taco” seasoning you buy at the store. Wow. I can’t pronounce half of them. We have been talking for a while about creating some pre-made spice mix recipes that can be made ahead of time and stored for quick use. Well, here we are – our first!

So I made tacos for the family tonight, with ground turkey and whole wheat tortillas. They were delicious and I felt great after eating them. I served them with homemade guacamole and diced tomatoes.

 Local Ingredient: Ground Turkey (purchased from the local farmers market).

    […] The sauce itself is a revelation, but when combined with the super tasty chicken enchilada mixture, it’s like heaven on a plate. We will be experimenting with the avocado sauce in the coming weeks. We’re thinking of more ways to utilize it in replacing ingredients to make other recipes clean.  We also used our very own Taco Seasoning recipe in this, you can find that recipe here.  […]
