Toni’s Taco Tuesday and Sequestered Cinco de Mayo~ Salud.

6 May

Cinco de Mayo is here! Let’s give ’em something to taco bout!

How much Mexican food do I plan to eat this Cinco de Mayo, you ask? That’s nacho business!

Cinco de Mayo is boring… said no Juan ever.

**********************

This is the first time in ages that I didn’t have friends over for a Cinco de Mayo fiesta, or go out to lunch or dinner. It’s not fun celebrating all by yourself, but I managed.

I love to cook, but I haven’t been to the store in weeks. So, I took my life into my own hands by searching the overstuffed freezer for some possible ingredients for dinner. Only two things fell on my foot during my search. No injuries.

I found some frozen cooked chicken breasts, chopped green pepper, and some frozen avocado. Oh yes, the ever important container of Minutemade Limeade for margaritas. I already had plenty of tortillas in the fridge. Every good Mexican has plenty of tortillas at all times.

After my evening walk, I started preparing my shredded chicken tacos with black beans.

While the tacos were frying, I mushed the now defrosted avocado with some Bernard’s Salsa, poured out some tortilla chips, and blended the margaritas. I know…I know… that’s enough food for an army. I’ll be having taco Wednesday, and Thursday, and Friday. As long as the margaritas hold out, I’m OK with that.

Salud Amigos. Feliz Cinco de Mayo.

Yes, I do have my very own super cool sombrero.
