Everyone Loves Taco Night! Enjoy Family Taco Night with Old El Paso - Review and Giveaway




Truth be told I loved it well before I met him so marrying into a family filled with awesome spanish style cooks was really just a huge score on my part.  Of all they amazing spanish style meals they make they hardly ever make just plain old tacos.  So when I do a taco night at our house I go all out we enjoy it BIG time.

One of my favorite brands of taco shells, seasonings and other Mexican style offerings is the classic Old El Paso.  Their products are full of great flavor plus their recipes are no brainers and easy to follow.  I love them because when I need a quick and delicious go to meal tacos are they way to go. 

To satisfy your Mexican style cravings, the Old El Paso® line up of products includes chilies, dinner kits, dips and sides, enchilada sauce, refried beans, seasoning mixes, shells, taco sauce and salsa. The Old El Paso taco seasoning mix selection includes flavors like Burrito, Cheesy Taco, Chili, Fajita, Taco, Mild Taco and even a seasoning with 40% less sodium.

Family Taco Night is a fun time for everyone in our house but Old El Paso has come up with a way to make it a little bit more interesting with El Tacodor, the world's only Family Taco Night Game. With El Tacodor, your family can share a special night at home by challenging one another to quick fire trivia, wordplay and pantomime. Visit www.ElTacodor.com today to download instructions, a score card, and a challenge sheet for even more fun on Family Taco Night!

Visit Old El Paso for news and great tips, recipes and more. Take a minute to share family fiesta photos and videos from Family Taco Nights on the El Tacodor Family Spotlight!

For our Family Taco Night I decided to make soft tacos for the kids and tostados for us.  I hadn't made them in awhile and I was craving them.  I made ground beef and I added the Old El Paso Taco Seasoning Mix as directed.  Then I heated up some Old El Paso refried beans in a pot, some Old El Paso tostado shells in the oven and then I was ready to add my toppings.  Voila!  Dinner is served!   I also made a wonderful (and simple) homemade guacamole dip that my MIL taught me and got some salsa from from my favorite tienda to serve with some tortilla chips that also doubled as a delicious topping for the tostados and the tacos.  Below are some pictures of what I made for our Family Taco Night.




One way that we enjoy Family Taco Night is with a fun game of Loteria!  Loteria is a spanish version of Bingo and the kids have lots of fun playing.  Plus as an added bonus they get to learn some great new spanish words too!

We almost always have a taco/mexican night each week although i don't have a designated day. i'll say Wed. is taco night...because monday is usually tofu and friday is pizza night...so Wed. seems like the perfect day for it!
