taco tuesday

we got tacos for breakfast this morning! and we got gobs of them, so there we even had a few left over for lunch.

everybody digs breakfast tacos, right? i mean, probably not everybody. but we're keen on them around here and i get the impression lots of other folks are too ... especially on tuesdays.

is that a thing in your neck of the woods?

most days, we're cereal and coffee types here in the worthy household. every once in a while, there's oatmeal ... or donuts!

but tacos are a nice changeup because they're savory instead of sweet, and you can mix and match them, which doesn't really work with cereal. two or three different tacos (yes, i admit i sometimes hog down three whole tacos) ... that's like a multi-course meal, you know? but if you try having two or three kinds of cereal, it kind of ends up a big weird mish-mash. that's especially true if the three kinds of cereal are something like granola (because that's what heddy likes), another one like lucky charms (which i'd like to pretend was just around the house for ariel and sasha, but heck, who doesn't like lucky charms?), and then life cereal or golden grahams or something. i mean, there are definitely kinds of cereal you could mix together and get away with it, but not fruit loops and bran flakes.

breakfast tacos all go together, though.

potato and egg + carne guisada ...
picadillo + bacon, egg, and cheese ...
bean and cheese + another bean and cheese + another bean and cheese ...

you can have basically an infinite variety of breakfasts just off of different kinds of tacos. (attention, msg! please do not come in here reading my blog and then calculating the actual number of possible combinations of breakfast tacos!)

not every tuesday is taco tuesday, but it's hard to beat taco tuesday when it actually rolls around.
