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 Brownie Mix

Yes you heard me correctly! This is my favorite mix to make as I hate, with a passion, buying box mixes but it is so difficult and inconvenient to make it when you are in a rush; it sucks! This mix can be stored for up to 6 months as along as you place it in an air tight container and in a cool dark area of your house (pantry is perfect). I forgot to picture my organic sugar, but nonetheless it is pictured below. I hope you enjoy these brownies as much as we do.

You Will Need:

6 Cups Organic Whole White Wheat Flour
8 Cups Organic Sugar
2 Cups Organic Fair Trade Baking Cocoa
2 tbsp Baking Powder
1 tbsp Salt

To Make:

 2 1/4 Cup Brownie Mix
2 Organic Pasture Raised Eggs
1/3 Cup Organic Olive Oil
2 tsp Organic Vanilla

Add baking powder to cocoa powder


Add flour, sugar, salt


I forgot to put sugar in the first picture


Optional, you can add in soy free chocolate chips
Mix everything together


Will last up to 6 months stored in an air tight container

**To Cook:

**Mix all the ingredients in your stand mixer or with an electric mixer. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick insert comes out clean. {You can add more mini soy-free chocolate chips before baking. Also, add homemade mini marshmallows}. Allow to cool completely, then cut and top with homemade vanilla ice cream! YUM! (or serve it warm with the ice cream, now that is my favorite!)
