“I hate tacos!” (said no Juan ever)
Or no LB for that matter… He enjoys one every morning for breakfast! (we call them wraps, so I suppose they are a cousin of the taco).
In celebration of
TACO TUESDAY
I am serving the following for dinner:
Taco Stuffed Peppers 
That’s right… I’m thinking outside of the proverbial taco box.
These babies are chock-full of tomato, beef, rice, green bell pepper, onion, and various spices. Then sprinkled with a generous amount of Monterey Jack cheese on top.
I baked them at 350° for about 30 minutes.
LB thinks they are delicious
What’s great about them? They are on the verge of being carb-free.
All of the ingredients used in the making of these stuffed peppers are without carb, with the exception of the leftover rice that was mixed in (because I happened to have some). The amount of rice that I used measured to be about a half a cup and was divided into four servings (or four bell pepper halves). If you are practicing a carb free lifestyle or happen to be living the Paleo life, this is the perfect way to participate in Taco Tuesday.
LB is a skinny boy and does not deny himself the pleasure of carbohydrate consumption. To keep him well fed, I added a side of pinto beans.
Now obviously, you can’t have Mexican cuisine in any form without some version of a Margarita. For our Taco Tuesday, LB is having an imitation Margarita in a salt rimmed Margarita glass. 
LB is the only one having an imitation Margarita because Kim only has one glass in her collection now. But she DOES have a wonderful man in her life that is gracious enough to do the dishes!
Confession time: I didn’t use a recipe for this taco concoction because, as I alluded to before, I had leftovers that I felt the need to use. But if you’d like a recipe, I have one pinned on my Pinterest “Let’s Eat” board that you can find here.
Happy 
Tuesday
