You had me at TACOS. Haha! We are defiantly a “TACO FAMILY.” We love to enjoy tacos in every form. It’s always an easy meal to feed to our son and he is defiantly always satisfied. Tacos are just a FUN FOOD! And, defiantly always FUN to eat! Haha! Zucchini was an awesome addition to this recipe, because it is PACKED with awesome health benefits including: it’s high in antioxidants, may strengthen your vision, improve heart health, contributes to healthy digestion, and reduces blood sugar levels. We usually eat zucchini a few times a week. It is defiantly one of our favorite vegetables. What is your family’s favorite vegetable?
