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.

Stuffed Pepper Soup

 

Stuffed pepper soup is one of my most favorite soups for fall/winter time. There is just nothing that tops it, in my opinion. Now, I make this much differently than typical. I make it just like my stuffed peppers but keep the rice aside, here you will see me add the rice to the pot, I only do that if I know we will eat it almost all in one night and we did just that. You want to keep the rice separate since rice will absorb the liquid, thus not making it soup any longer. 

You Will Need:
1 lb Ground Beef
2 Cups Rice, cooked
1 Can Tomato Sauce
Peppers, (any color and amount, I like more)
1 Onion, diced 
1/2 Jar of Taco Bell Hot Sauce 
1 Full Jar of Taco Bell Mild Sauce
4 Cups Beef Bone Broth
