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.

Christmas Shop With Me

Shopping for my families Christmas gifts. I tend to get these done early so I know everything will be here on time, I always get VERY nervous that things will arrive late and will ruin someone's gift. I did shop for my dad prior to this (throughout the year) and I crocheted him a blanket. My husband, and 2 kids were shopped for here (except Kris' desktop I got on Best Buy, Kai's was out of stock on Best Buy so I had to get it here). I also got Dan's new iPad 12.9 off another website prior to this when they had them closed out I think I have had that iPad for 4 months now just hidden away (under my side of the bed) lol. 

Our 2 children are homeschooled, and have been since they were in the 3rd grade (my son did homeschooling for Kindergarten then went to a traditional school, but after a lot of issues with the school and bullying, self confidence issues we decided to put them back in K12 (OHVA) and they have been there ever since. My daughter, Kai, has gained sooooo much confidence in math (which is the subject she was struggling in big time). OHVA allows her one on one time if she needs it for extra help, the teachers are amazing at answering her questions and giving her guidance when she needs it. OHVA is just like a traditional school, except it is online. They are expected to attend online live classes with their classmates and teaches daily (they have 6 or 7 classes a day right now). They are excepted to do everything a traditional school would except from high schoolers.
