Flavorful, Spicy Tacos your whole Family will Love

After years of trying to eat together as a GF family, my husband and I sometimes get it right. He decided to make tacos and looked for GF ingredients for me. He ended up finding products that we both love together. This is definitely a keeper recipe. We recommend you change the spice level for younger children. Teenagers will love this because it is like Doritos and a little edgy.

Spicy, Semi-Homemade Tacos
Ingredients:
1 lb ground meat (hamburger, turkey or chicken)
1 packet of Old El Paso brand gluten free, low sodium taco seasoning
1 can of Rotel brand diced tomatoes and green chilies (drained)
1 small can of tomato sauce (for thickness)
1 cup of lettuce (chopped)
1 tomato (diced)
1/2 cup Mexican mix shredded cheese
1 package of Old El Paso Bold Spicy Cheddar Flavored Taco Shells
Salsa, hot sauce, sriracha, tapatio of your choice



Prep time: 20 minutes

Everyday Eating & Mardi Gras

The beauty of eating gluten free is that it is simple. It takes you to core eating. Healthy foods. The difficulty is finding delicious healthy foods. Here are some of my everyday staples. Mind you, I love vegetables. Fresh vegetables are my favorite. Flash frozen are a far second. For a quick fun snack or even meal. Fresh green beans and Bella mushrooms. Microwave in a covered dish for 2-3 minutes to steam.   For fun and food variety each month, my hubby and I like to follow themes with the seasons. This year we had home cooked New Orleans cuisine on Mardi Gras Tuesday. A great tasting gluten free sausage was our mission. We found one we love, Aidelles Cajun Andouille Sausage. Be ready, it is spicy. It is everything you are looking for in a sausage. Gluten Free, no MSG, no Nitrates, no added Hormones, no artificial ingredients. Whoo! Almost like making your own sausage. We tried Zaterain's Jambalaya mix last year. We tried Zatarain's Dirty Rice thi...

Make Ahead & Freeze Gluten Free Recipes.

After 8 months of gluten free eating my husband is on board to cook gluten free meals for me. He is an amazing cook. He is creative, follows the recipe and adds his own flair to make the recipe all his own. He even came in 2nd at a huge chili cook off at our church. He has created two new home recipes for me. Both are make ahead recipes. Both are freezable. In our household we like to cook twice a week. Enough to be evening staple meals for two or three days. With only two of us it makes it easier than most families of 4 or more. With these new freezable recipes we have been trying, we can cook on Sunday and have meals for a month if we choose. These recipes can stay in the freezer for up to 3 months. Pizza Tot Casserole 1 1/2lbs ground beef                                     ...
