Break out the sombreros it's Mexican night! [mexican taco recipe]

Yes, that's right... I made tacos this fine evening. Over the years I have found that Mexican cooking is always a bit of a hassle because of all the preparation work involved. Tonight I made the filling with Richfood's Dirty Rice Rice Mix in New Orleans Style. This is easily prepared with minced beef and I added some onion and hot chilis. Richfood products are normally found in the US for all of you American readers. I also made my own guacamole, it's a very basic recipe that anyone can whip up. Anyway on with the tacos this evening.

1 packet of Dirty Rice New Orleans Style
500grams lean steak mince

Pre prepare and set out on table
bowl full of shredded lettuce
1 chopped hot chili
shredded cheddar cheese
chopped tomato
sour cream
bottle of hot sauce
lime wedges

Guacamole
1 ripe avacado
1 chopped tomato
1/2 chopped red chili
juice of 1 lime
1/4 of a red onion

pack of tacos

Follow the packet instructions for the dirty rice and beef. Prepare all the other ingredients and set on table. For the guacamole, combine all the ingredients and chill in a fridge until meal is prepared. Prepare taco shells according to packet instructions.

Happy eating! This is a very satisfying meal and there is always plenty left over for lunch the following day!
