This is a prompt from Mama Kat's Pretty Much World Famous Writer's Workshop. It's a fun way to come up with blog topics, and I've been reading the prompts for a while. Now I'm finally getting around to actually responding to a prompt and I'm writing about:
Comfort food at its finest. Share a family favorite recipe you loved as a child.
The one that came to mind was tacos. We had tacos pretty frequently growing up. They're easy, pretty inexpensive, and all 6 kids were willing to eat them. No wonder we ate tacos a lot!
Our taco recipe was pretty simple. Cook ground beef, add taco seasoning. Spoon beef into a flour tortilla or crunchy taco shell. Top with cheese and lettuce. Add ketchup.
That's right, ketchup. For some reason we always put ketchup on our tacos! I don't know where that started, but that's just the way we always ate tacos.
These days, I cringe at the thought. I guess I've become a taco snob. Plus, I don't like ketchup!
And yet... I remember how much I always loved those tacos. Maybe I'll have to try it again.

I must say, the thought of ketchup on a taco caught me up. I guess I'm a taco snob too. But, kids will be kids. Maybe you would still like it?!
Love tacos, not a big fan of ketchup!
What a great memory. I can't imagine tolerating ketchup on tacos either. Must be a kid thing. I know mine does honey mustard on just about everything, and she's 18!!
Ketchup on tacos?? Cringe.
Tacos are probably my favourite supper!!
Maybe tomorrow will be taco night!
