Mark's Story -
I found this recipe in the March 2016 Cooking Light magazine that I now have a subscription to thanks to my daughter's fund raising efforts at her school. It's a fairly quick meal to put together. Although it only serves four, depending on how hungry everyone is in our family, I just may double everything.
The one thing that we all like about this recipe is that it isn't a traditional taco in that you make your own taco seasoning with the chili powder, cumin, and oregano. Most store bought pre-made taco seasonings have got a lot of salt and way too much chili powder and just too spicy for our family.
I did make some minor modifications to the original recipe; however, if you'd like the original, it is in Cooking Light, March 2016 issue.
