CopyCat Del Taco Chicken Tacos

Living in Arizona for 13 years of my adolescent life I grew up loving Del Taco. My parents would get take out there often. My sister, Michelle, that was her favorite taco out. If we did take out one night, Michelle always wanted Del Taco over anything else. She loves the chicken tacos. Now that I live in Ohio, Del Taco is not really out here. I have found 1 or 2 but they are some distance away from us. So, I decided to try and make that for my Sunday Family Movie night pick. Tonight, is my pick and I drew Mexican food so why not give it a try.  Marinade: 3 Large Chicken (I used thin chicken breast), diced 1 Lime, juiced 1 tbsp Taco Seasoning  1 tbsp Soy Sauce 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Onion Powder 1 tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder 1/4 tsp Paprika Place all ingredients above into a ziplock, shake well and marinade for 30 minutes to an hour. I found the longer the better flavor.  White Sauce: 1 cup Mayo 1 Lime, juiced Whisk together in a bowl until smooth, set aside until ready for assembly.

DIY Play Dough!

Play dough is super fun activity for children to develop their fine motor skills and come on lets be completely honest here, we all love play dough regardless of our age; I know I do! I always loved the store bought stuff, and I am not going to like the smell is amazing! But I hated the idea that the kids could get sick if they ate any by mistake or even the dogs if the kids dropped any. I have stuck to making homemade dough since Kris was 2 years old and understood not to eat it, but if he did by mistake I could not really freak out about it. I planned to show you more than one play dough recipe and will be sure to have a section laid out just for the different play doughs I have planned here. I know Kris and Kai are extremely excited and happy about all the play dough they will be able to play with. Now, these are amazing for stocking stuffers, just pick up some cheap small air tight containers, follow along with the recipe and your children will be super excited opening their stocking this Christmas!

Small Air-Tight Container

1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
