#3: The Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger Taco

Just in time for Labor Day Weekend, we created the hamburger masterpiece! Instead of the same old boring routine of grilling hamburgers, we decided to make ours into some pretty delicious tacos :-)

What you need...

1 pound ground hamburger meat

1 2.3 oz bag of bacon pieces

1 cup of shredded cheese

1/2 cup of barbeque sauce

4 flour tortilla shells

oil

yellow mustard

Wicked Wickles (or any other type of sliced pickles)

Curly Fries (or sweet potato fries)

In a small sautee pan, cook hamburger meat. Once the meat is brown, add in barbeque sauce to moisten. Next add in bacon pieces and shredded cheese. Stir well and let simmer on the stove.

In another medium size pan, cover the bottom with oil. Once the oil has heated, fry one tortilla shell at a time- 30 seconds on each side.

Fold the fried tortilla shell into a "U" shape. Place curly fries on the bottom of the shell. Next, spoon on hamburger mixture. Top with yellow mustard and pickles. We even sprinkled a little extra cheese for gooeyness. Makes 4 large tacos!

#2: Lemonade Chicken Tacos

Refreshing lemonade on a hot summer day??? Yes please! This week, we made some super delicious and refreshing chicken tacos made with tart, cold lemonade :-)
 

Ingredients:
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts (cut into bit size pieces)
1 cup lemonade
2 tablespoons safflower oil (or olive oil)
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion flakes (or powder)
1 bay leaf
1 jalapeno chopped
1/2 cup onion sliced
1/2 cup green peppers sliced
8 tortilla shells (corn or flour- we used flour)

Toppings:
1 large tomato chopped
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 avocado sliced
Chunky salsa
Sour cream

In a large skillet over medium heat, combine chicken, lemonade, oil, lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, and bay leaf. After a few minutes, add jalapeno, onions, and green pepper (we like our food spicy). Simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, and juices run clear.
On a plate, place a tortilla shell. Sprinkle cheese onto the bottom of the shell. Spoon on chicken mixture, and top with tomato, cheese, avocado, salsa, and sour cream.

There are a lot of ingredients to this yummy taco, but is a cinch to make!
