Taco Tuesday is my favorite day of the week so good. This recipe takes a little work but is worth it. Give it a try today.

Taco Tuesday — How does your family do taco night? My kids love when they get to prepare their own food and they love tacos!
I fry up a pound of ground beef with a diced onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and couple TBSP of taco sauce.
Sour Cream, Salsa, Cheese, Lettuce we used Arugula. We prefer jalapenos on our tacos but we use pickled hot peppers when were out of jalapenos. I always put the tortilla chips out with the tacos in case someone wants a few of those.
