Taco Tuesday

Tacos are often an easy lunch or supper when the schedule doesn't allow too much time in the kitchen. My family often refers to Tuesday as Taco Tuesday just because they know  the menu will  be quick and easy to meet my need to get to a meeting on time. Midwest Dairy's Touchdown Taco Salad offers a nutritious and tasty  variation for our Taco Tuesday schedule.
