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.

Lemon Blueberry Cookies

These cookies my daughter made, she did an amazing job! I dislike blueberries, but I ate me a crap load of these babies! They were amazing. My daughter is starting her own section on my blog and YouTube "Kiss & Bake Up" I could not be prouder of her for wanting to follow her passion of baking. I love to cook, do not like baking. She loves to bake, does not like cooking lol we are complete opposites! I LOVE IT!! I feel like this brings us closer together. I do the cooking and she does the baking, we are normally in the kitchen together most days. Since coming off her seizure medications, she has really changed! I love this women she is becoming every day. She has started playing piano sooo much more now, even with two hands. Before, she only played with her right hand and never could get her brain to figure out how to use both. Now, she has it DOWN!! and boy it is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard! I will have to post a short next time she plays.

3/4 Cup Butter, Room Temp.
