Day 3: TACO NIGHT!!!

Taco night is my favorite dinner night! In fact I would have tacos most every day if James would let us and these tacos did not disappoint!  It was such a unique take on tacos - we loved it.

The black beans call for 2 hours on the stove so instead I cooked them in the slow cooker all day on low and they were perfect for when we got home.  That saved some time.  I love brown rice but hate that it takes an hour.

The taco meat was so different with the slight crunch of zucchini and squash but it was a pleasant surprise.  The yogurt was a stretch for me but I followed directions and it was a really great addition.  It added a sweet/tartness that complimented the tacos.  We didn't tell the girls it was yogurt until AFTER dinner and they didn't believe us!  Harris even said..but mom I don't LIKE yogurt!

The only negative to the dish were the tortillas and I take responsibility for that.  I thought I bought two packages of a brand we know we like but I didn't realize that one of the packages was a different brand that turned out to be too dry.

All and all another successful dish by Chef Justin!
