Serious question guys

I'm making my meal plan for the week so that I can make my grocery list and get the heck out of here this morning. 
Anyway,, I think tacos will be a good idea since they're easy and I can make them vegan without issue for Taylor.  So, I'm looking at this recipe and notice that it says six servings.  Which leads me to wonder, WHO THINKS ONE TACO IS A SERVING? 

Zayne's eyes about bugged out of his head at the thought of only getting one taco for dinner. 

Okay, okay, I need to find one more thing to make for dinner this week so I'll leave you alone.  But I had to share because... really?

That boy's stomach is gonna get him in more trouble than his mouth.

I am with you on one taco is a serving. What the hell? Anerexic?

Well, at least if he's eating, he's not getting into other trouble, right?

RIGHT? It's a three taco minimum in our house!

Even on a diet I go for two!! Not going to say how many I would eat when I wasn't dieting. LOL

EXACTLY. Hahaha — like I said to Sharpie above, it's a three taco minimum in our house. Even my daughter who's 5' 1" and 110 lbs eats three!

Puh-leeze! Three for sure, even if it's those tiny corn shells that barely cover my hand, lol.

Hah! those corn tortillas are the worst. Like gimme a real sized taco por favor!

Well, even in NZ where we don't tend to have as big servings as the US, I'd say we'd eat two as a minimum, though to be fair we don't really eat tacos. Hubby & I don't really like how they fall apart when you bite into them, and I prefer soft to crispy outers, so we usually go for burritos, but since they're very similar anyway, we'd still eat a minimum of two each!

Right? At least two! Hahaha — maybe it's because I've grown up eating them, but I could not live without tacos. Burritos are a good option, too! As are enchiladas, chilaquiles, flautas... um... hell, just Mexican food in general. LOL

[identity profile] haldoor.livejournal.com 2022-06-20 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
True! I love Mexican food as well — what of it I've tried, that is! I just have this thing about crunchy shells with my softer inners... hence even nachos I like the chips to be soggy in with the rest of the mix, rather than crispy. I do eat chips, btw, but not with soft food! I'm weird like that ;-)

You'd like chilaquiles then! Fried tortilla strips that are smothered with sauce, cheese, etc, so they get soft.

Honestly, I just like to eat. LOL

Ooh, that does sound yum!

LOL, me too, although by many people's standards I am fussy. Personally, I just think why eat something if you don't like it? I prefer to leave that stuff for those who do like it, and I'll eat the rest that I do like!

[identity profile] asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com 2022-06-23 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
It's one of my favorite dishes!

I totally agree. And honestly, we all have our weird food things. Me, I don't like meat in my pasta. Ground meat is okay, but I'd rather not have any if I had a choice. So, eat what makes you happy. :D

One Taco? That's just wrong.

[identity profile] asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com 2022-06-20 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
RIGHT?

[identity profile] kaige68.livejournal.com 2022-06-20 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
That single taco would need to be pretty darn significant! Two when you have sides isn't always filling. Jeeze!!!

[identity profile] asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com 2022-06-20 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, right? It'd have to be like the quesadilla Taylor got a couple weeks ago that was served in a small pizza box. LOL
