Man I've been having such a craving for tacos lately and sausages for that matter. How do you like to eat your taco?

    i have been buying the ortega taco kits and just using ground turkey instead of beef. can't tell the difference. I like them simple, just some shredded lettuce and a little tomato.

    I like tacos with tuna. I like to get down low close to the taco and let the juices run down my chin. I don't like sausages though.

    This topic is going to go places you don't want it to, I know that for sure.

    As for tacos, I prefer a pita stuffed with chicken and grapes.

    I crave tacos often... we eat them often... modified of course... Generally we use ground turkey... But, I have found that I like ground chicken much better. I don't eat cheese, I load up on lettuce and tomato and onion... yum... And occasionally light sour cream. I also use lo carb tortillas. Or many times, I skip the tortilla and make a taco salad with just lettuce, tomato, onion, meat, & occasionally sour cream... If I prefer cheese, I use reduced fat feta. :)

    I hate ground turkey, and I always find that it's poor quality. I just use 96% lean beef from Trader Joes.

    I usually pick up two crunchy tacos (not with sour cream) and some hot sauce from Taco Bell about once a week. They're only 170 calories each. I can do that.

    I also like Jack in the Box tacos (193 calories each and more than twice the fat of Taco Bell tacos), but the local establishment closed. That's probably a good thing, because I find those greasy little tacos irresistible.

    There's an authentic Mexican taco truck that I pass by every day and it makes me very sad to be fat. But if I were to allow myself a taco, it would definitely have to be a whole wheat soft taco, and would include sliced chicken breast or lean steak strips, onions, fresh cilantro, spinach, avacado slices and maybe some pico de gallo for heat. I very rarely allow myself cheese. But they have recipes for either almond or cashew cheese that looks pretty good.
    As for the sausage, I like hillshire farm smoked turkey sausage. It's very tasty and a 2 oz piece (not as small as it sounds) is only 90 calories.
