Fredericksburg Foodie loves Taco Tuesdays as much as we do! Actually we do Mexican probably more than the average family. It is quick easy and a winner with the entire family. The goal though is to change it up and not always just have the basics like ground beef or chicken tacos.
Enjoy a new take on tacos for Tuesdays or even when you are entertaining your friends!
