    Where do you find crispy flour taco shells? Or do you fry your own?

    When I read that I saw it as "Crispy corn tortillas and flour tortillas" rather than crispy tortillas made out of a mix of corn and flour.

    A small ( 4 locations ) long time local chain taco place Taco Inn – A Lincoln Original Since 1976 offers the choice of corn or crisp flour shell tacos. They're also the only fast food Mexican place ( at least around here ) that offers tostadas. I really prefer the flour shell tacos, they're a thinner shell. I've had those tacos with a soft flour tortilla folded around a crisp corn shell. It's an interesting texture.

    Tacos of all sorts are one of my top 2-3 favorite foods. Usually I prefer soft corn tortillas, but I'll eat all types. :D

    Made from scratch...
    Japchae! (so many people have asked what the heck it is, so here's the one I made!)


    And, key lime pie.... To make up for the Fail a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if we have rats or if my sous chef was hungry. Ha. [​IMG][​IMG]

    The thick & chunky tomato meat sauce is simmering on the range top; 3:30 will make four hours cook time.

    Will serve it over angel hair pasta (unless I go to the grocery store for regular or thin spaghetti), with streamed broccoli.

    Spaghetti with homemade meat sauce,
    Don't buy that sugar loaded prepared sauce.
    Ground beef from my freezer, Hunts tomato sauce, seasonings from my cabinet and then add what ever veges I have on hand. So good.

    I made burgers. We needed a redemption night. So I seasoned and beat an egg, mixed into a pound of Trader Joe's 80/20 ground beef and seared on the grill pan for 3m per side. Served with pickles, mustard, veganaise, tomato, butter lettuce, ketchup, and gluten-free hamboiger buns from TJs. And some sweet potato "frites" from TJs that I baked on parchment. It was a good dinner. I owned it.

    Had the butcher cut some 1 3/4" bone in ribeyes. Reverse seared them in the cast iron skillet. Awesome stuff.

    I took my mother to a nice Italian restaurant for her birthday.

    She had a mildly seasoned grilled chicken
    And a light Caesar salad

    I had an Italian salad (spring mix)
    Steamed Mussels in herbs and butter
    And grilled chicken in a nice pesto spaghetti

    And a great glass of crisp Pinot Grigio

    Then we both shared a decadent bread pudding with vanilla ice cream atop.
