Taco Tuesday doesn’t have to just be your standard soft or crunchy options! We liked to mix up our Mexican food nights and think outside the shell! Taco Bowls are one of our family’s favorite meals and they’re so easy to throw together.
Once school has started, I try to find meals that I can make in one pan (for less dishes) and that I can have ready from start to finish in about thirty minutes or less. Taco Bowls meet all of that criteria and so they’re on the weekly meal plan regularly! We also really like making easy Mexican Pizza, or skip the beef and have the Chicken Burrito Bowls instead!
