Hi, there!

So Derek likes tacos.  I do too, but he, like like like's tacos.  Since April is 30 Days of Biking, he started joking about also having 30 Days of Tacos. 

Cut to me thinking about tacos.  I thought, "ya know, with a few well defined rules, I bet we could totes eat tacos every day for a month without going into May with a serious hate for them."

And so 30 Days of Tacos was born.


THE RULES

  1. Some sort of taco must be eaten every day, for any meal.
  2. Tacos need not be mexican.  Taco-shaped food and/or food that can easily be explained into a taco are acceptable forms of taco.  ie Greek Tacos, Chinese Lettuce Tacos.
  3. Foods with the word "Taco" in them count as tacos.  Examples include but are not limited to: Taco pie, taco pizza, taco salad, breakfast taco, dessert taco, ChocoTaco
mmmmm...Chocotaco......

As 30 Days of Tacos doesn't start for another week-and-a-half, there may be some rule-editing.  So far, I only have about 16 taco recipes, and looking at them makes me feel a little sick of tacos (don't tell Derek).  Let me know if you have any rule suggestions, and by all means, let me know if you're going to join us!

  1. I'm already interested. After you do 30 days of Taco we should do 1 week vegan just to see if we like it. :-) -Deb

  2. I probably would have gone with a slightly more strict definition of tacos (probably excluding things that simply have taco in the name), but let's be realistic...I'm too freakin' lazy to make this happen on my own. So...the lady gets to define the rules.

  3. I agree that just having taco in the name isn't good enough. They should have to be taco shaped, so salad doesn't count but dessert tacos do. I think "no repeats" should be a rule, too. Eating a Chocotaco a day for a month is definitely a delicious experiment, but not a very blog-worthy one, IMO.

  4. YOu can make the same recipe several times with different meats or no meat or have a sweet potato, plantain.... anything to make it easy. With a Chocotaco for dessert!
