BM #98 Week 2 Day 1 -
This week I have chosen to explore the breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas from Mexico.
Our family is a great fan of Mexican food and so I thought to introduce them to other Mexican foods other than the Tacos and Tortilla Chips - Salsa they so frequently enjoy.
I found these breakfast tacos to be very filling and perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast/brunch. It is totally customizable and it can be personalized by each person.
I let the kids personalize their tacos and you don't want to know how messy the platter and the dining table got :).
