I know this might sound completely insane, due to these incredulous temperatures we’re experiencing, but for some reason warm, cheesy, baked, gooey chicken and spinach enchiladas called to me today, begging on hands and knees to be eaten for dinner tonight. Oh, but see, it’s okay! You don’t have to admit me into a psych […]

Yesterday after meeting up with an old dear friend for lunch, Aaron and I drove away from the restaurant craving a little summer mid-day treat.

Okay I know this isn’t a taco PER SE, but it involves a corn tortilla, and I’m hungry. The Cinco de Eato celebration continues for lunch with a simple guacamole quesadilla. Make your favorite guacamole recipe and lay it between two corn tortillas. Smother with cheese and broil for a nano second and voila, lunch! […]

I think it’s safe to say this holiday was made for me. Never mind that I’m American or the history itself of Cinco de Mayo. But hello, TACOS. It’s the one day of the year that you can eat 37 tacos and not be considered a freak. I just started my day with a breakfast […]
