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.

Pantry Restock

My husband and I do instacart as time together and to save money for home upgrades and what not (LOTS coming stay tune!!). While doing instacart I saw some simple truth beans that we buy when I do not can them and saw tomato products on sale, which we were out of. I stocked up black beans, chickpeas, northern beans, white beans, kidney beans, chili beans, lentils, pinto beans, crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, petite tomatoes, tomato sauce, oregano, garlic tomatoes, chili tomatoes, and tomato sauce with garlic and onion. I bought about 100 cans to restock the pantry and plan to buy more when and if they go on sale again. Right now, Kroger has Simple Truth (organic) beans and tomato products for $.99 I had coupons making each can $.49 a piece! With these items not expiring until 2025, I thought what the hell! Stock it up!! Shelf is good for a while!! 

Stock on sale! That is my goal always!
