Brett actually joked that we should post a picture of what the taco salad REALLY looks like when we eat it. I just took a picture of it after I threw everything in the bowl. After snapping the shot, I proceeded to mix it all up into a nasty looking, but tasty mush. Hehehe.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-44091945161748000912008-07-09T13:14:00.000-05:002008-07-09T13:14:00.000-05:00Oooh, the tamale pockets look really good, I'm ver...Oooh, the tamale pockets look really good, I'm very interested in her book when it comes out.

I'm thinking very seriously about turning all my meals into variations of the taco salad. :-)<BR/><BR/>Alice - It is, but with a little planning and preparation, you can have delish meals all week without living in a furnace.<BR/><BR/>Selina - They were very good! I recommend this as the first thing to try if (or when) you get her cookbook.<BR/><BR/>I wondered the same thing myself. I'd even pick them just to take them to the food bank. I don't know what I'd do with them all, but I'd be willing to also try my hand at preserving them too. I've just always figured it would be my luck that they would show up the day I was there cleaning off their plants! It's just so frustrating, I've seen I don't know how many zucchini, summer squash, and tomatoes rotting. Argh!<BR/><BR/>Shellyfish - I know! And I know! I'm so proud of her, she's worked so hard, and it's so nice to see someone you care about pursuing their dreams.<BR/><BR/>Courtney - Thanks! Taco salads make very regular appearances in our house during the summer. Not much cooking involved, you get tons of veggies, and we can toss beans, lentils and other sources of protein in there to boot.<BR/><BR/>Katie (Chocolate Covered Vegan) - Your comment got me craving them again too!<BR/><BR/>Chickpea - It is, and this comes from someone who doesn't like tofu. Though admittedly, Brett is much better at making this than I am. <BR/><BR/>Jessy - They were awesome, and my apartment smelled so good while they were baking.<BR/><BR/>You guys should, the lentils are very versatile, and you could make both the taco salad and Lentil and Potato tacos, no waste, not a lot of effort, and some good food.<BR/><BR/>I hope you guys like it if you try it!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-17829164879935437512008-07-03T10:33:00.000-05:002008-07-03T10:33:00.000-05:00i think the tamale pockets look droolworthy! and t...i think the tamale pockets look droolworthy! and taco salad = the perfect summer dinner! dan & should make some of those, too. the lentils look sooooooooooo good!jessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01239751125232117374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-19419754728238199112008-07-02T23:32:00.000-05:002008-07-02T23:32:00.000-05:00That tofu sour cream sounds really good...and I do...That tofu sour cream sounds really good...and I don't even like regular sour cream!ChickPeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01796488061660385286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-23139716500869458972008-07-02T21:35:00.000-05:002008-07-02T21:35:00.000-05:00Now I'm craving taco salad!Now I'm craving taco salad!ChocolateCoveredVeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535445175195773771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-69389843529237367632008-07-02T18:17:00.000-05:002008-07-02T18:17:00.000-05:00Oh man, I love taco salad, and yours looks great! ...Oh man, I love taco salad, and yours looks great!
