oooooo Im all over this one! I'm making pork tacos today. I cook a pork butt in the slow cooker all day with my own seasonings, then when its tender, I shred it and give it a quick toss in a pan with diced onion and jalapenos. Yummmmm0

fish tacos are often good and lighter fare0

I make a layered enchilada - an onion, a pepper, some garlic, a chopped zucchini (my husband can't have beans), a can of diced tomato, some Sofrito, shredded chicken (from 1lb raw) and a little bit of hot sauce and cilantro. Use as a filling lasagna style with corn tortillas and 2% cheese.

We are having fish tacos tonight.
Mine are (pan seared) cod seasoned with cumin, lime, and chili pepper and topped with avocados, cilantro, jalapenos, and a citrusy slaw. My kids leave off the slaw and jalapenos and just do avocado and cheese on theirs. (Cheese on fish makes me gag).
My go to though is boneless, skinless chicken thighs in the crockpot with a jar of salsa a cup of frozen corn and a can of black beans. I put the chicken and salsa in on low all day and then when I get home from work I add the corn and beans until heated through. I usually serve it over rice like a burrito bowl and top with fixings.0 -

When I'm pressed for time I'll make enchiladas. I cheat and buy the canned enchilada sauce, preshredded cheese, and get the chicken from a rotisserie chicken. I do cook an onion and green pepper to add to the filling. Then you just roll the chicken, cheese, onions, peppers, and spices up corn tortillas. Stick it them in a 9x13 casserole dish top with a couple cans of enchilada sauce and some cheese and pop that sucker in the oven for 20 minutes at 350. You can even make it ahead of time. I just add the sauce and cheese when I'm ready to cook it.0

Shredded chicken with green chilis and/or jalapenos to make it spicy. Stuff it into a leaf lettuce "taco" with a dollop of salsa, a smidgeon of cheese and a whisper of sour cream. Ole!0

Nice thanks. I do Taco Tuesday every week (something to look forward to) and get tired Old Elpaso kits and making my mom's patented burrito recipe from when I was a kid, lol0 -

I kinda slap this stuff together, but...
Quesadillas:
Flour tortillas, burrito size
Cheddar-jack (or cheddar or just jack), grab a bag of shredded cheese
Grilled Chicken - cubed (or shredded leftover pork)
Bacon - crumbled
Cilantro & Green onions - chopped, to taste
I toss my meats with the cilantro & onions in a bowl & set up a station next to the grill w/ tortillas, bowl of meat, & cheese.
I lightly butter one side of my tortilla & put it butter side down on grill (not necessary to use butter, but it's damn delicious). Working quickly, I place enough cheese to cover *only half* of the tortilla, topping that with meat & then covering w/ more cheese. Fold the uncovered side over to make a half moon shape & press down (helps the cheese "glue" everything together). Once browned on the bottom, carefully flip over using tongs to keep everything squeezed together & allow to brown on the other side. I cut each of these into thirds. This can be done in a frying pan too.
I serve these w/ sour cream, salsa & hot sauce...good plain right off the grill too.
Oh, if you're a mayo eater, I mix a few tablespoons of mayo into my sour cream & a good queeze of lime juice. Great condiment.
I'll post the Chiles Rellenos below0 -
Would like to have stuffed pepper enchiladas .0
