Taco Night with Old El Paso and Blog Spark Giveaway!

Our family loves tacos! We used to have Taco Night every Tuesday, but somewhere in the craziness that seemed to have stopped. So when this kit arrived my husband was super excited to reinstate Taco Tuesday!

Old El Paso served us well! The seasoning mix was perfect. It was very easy to make and tasted great! We also like to add lots of things to our tacos. We had sour cream, cheddar cheese, salsa and some shredded lettuce. Really, all I need is the cheese and sour cream... yum!
It was really fun to use the festive dishes!
We went with the classic taco dinner, but Old El Paso has tons of great recipes for you to try out! The Double Layer Tacos sounds delicious! And if you click HERE you can get a great coupon to save $.60 on any two Old El Paso products!

Old El Paso got us all set for Taco Tuesday, and they can help you out too!

We have tacos - or taco roll-ups as the kids call 'em - at least once a week. Since everyone has such varied tastes I set up a taco bar so everyone can top their taco just how they want it. Works out great as one doesn't like cheese, one doesn't like salsa, etc.

Great giveaway! My favorite way to make tacos is to bake the hard shells a little in the oven first, use chicken or lean ground beef, low sodium or reg. Old El Paso taco seasoning, cheese, black beans, brown rice.. yum! :)

It'd be nice to have a taco date night with my fiance! Thanks for the opportunity!

Taco night is huge in our house. We usually make chicken or turkey tacos. It's a fun way to get the kids involved too. My son loves helping put all the different toppings in their own little bowl.

my fav way is to make a taco casserole, all ingredients but lettuce and sour cream get layered in the casserole dish and baked...super great for reheating

Like our Tacos like soft burritos rolled up with meat, cheese and salsa and then deep fried (drined on paper towels). The kids like to dip them into sour cream and guacamole.

Great giveaway! Thanks for the op.

We love Tacos! One of my favorite ways to make them, is to have all the toppings and fixings set out to make a Taco-in-a-Bowl....easier for little kids who find everything falling out of their taco shells!

Favorite way to make tacos...well, we put in meat with lots of spice and flavor (so we don't need taco sauce), then cheese, then lettuce (if we have any on hand) and tons of sour cream! Usually, it ends up being an extremely messy and satisfying meal.
