Join us on Facebook to see our latest recipes!I plan my menu out for the week every Sunday. I usually don’t realize until I get to the grocery store the next day that I have planned Mexican dishes for 3 or so of the 7 meals for the week. I love it. I just can’t get enough! My husband is learning to love it almost as much as I do, and he definitely liked this. So did the toddler! It is a keeper!
Pictures just don’t do it justice.

I just use the cheapest salsa they sell at WalMart. Any salsa that is "chunky" will do! And mild is best if you have kids! :)
I think that would work fine! I wouldn't make it more than a day in advance so the tortillas don't get soggy.

I have never tried to freeze it before. I am not sure if it would work because the tortillas might get soggy when it thaws. Let us know how it goes if you try it!
