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.

Homemade Fruit Roll Ups

Fruit roll ups are my children's favorite snack. Normally, I buy them the Annie's Organic brand, but they can become a bit too expansive. When you can pay $3 for organic strawberries and $.70 for organic lemon (already have sugar or honey on hand) then it cost you nothing to make these. Give them a try you might be surprised. These taste amazing!! and smell just as amazing! 
You Will Need:
1 pint Strawberries
1/4 Cup Sugar
1/2 Lemon (juice)
Add sugar or honey to Vitamix
You can leave the tops or not up too you (the tops have lots of vitamins) 
Add berries and lemon juice to Vitamix; do not worry about seeds they will blend up
Blend until smooth
Lay microwave safe plastic cling on baking sheet then add silicone mat, pour mixture on top and bake at 175 degrees for 6-7 hours or until middle is not longer wet 
Flip on parchment paper to cool for one hour
Roll and cut! DONE AND YUM! Store in fridge for a month- probably will not last that long they do not last here!
