I had 10 people over for dinner last week. (3 adults and 7 kids). Seeing as there were so many kids, I decided to throw a Mexican Themed meal that would consist of:

• A Tortilla Bar (Tortillas, Yves Ground Round, Salsa, Sour Cream, Chopped Onion, Lettuce, Shredded Cheese, Black Beans)
• Cilantro Lime Rice
• Nachos and Salsa (used Neal Brothers Organic Blue Tortilla Chips)
• Avocado and Corn Salad (click  here   for the recipe)

• Salad in individual Tortilla Bowls
• Guacamole

I set up a buffet so that people could help themselves.

The table looked like this. Notice that on each plate is a Taco Bowl with their salad. This was a brilliant move as I had 10 less dishes to clear (and wash – err – stick in the dishwasher).

How did I make those taco bowls? Well…with the use of this pan that I bought in FEBRUARY 2013 at a Dollar Store in the States. Two questions I have for myself. ..a) Why didn’t I buy half a dozen b) Why did it take me 11 months to take USE this pan?

Can’t wait till my next “themed” meal. They really are a lot of fun to put together
