Taco Tuesday is my favorite event of the week. I almost treat it like a religious holiday that must be observed weekly. I've been so busy I've been going out a lot, but this week was Roberto's last Taco Tuesday before going away to Italy so I wanted to make something good. I knew I wanted shrimp, black beans, and rice. Something simple and fast. And this turned out to be one of my fastest Taco Tuesday ever!
I made lemon garlic shrimp and scallop tacos with the meat laying in a warm corn tortilla w/ a mescalin mix salad and fresh cucumber slices topped with a glob of sour cream. Served with cilantro brown rice, and black beans.
Miss. Texas came over and made a superb guacamole. She is the sweetest thing ever... and not a hick. When she started making the guac the avocados were far from ripe but after working her magic and Roberto's expert mashing it came out to be delicious. (I think her choice of serrano chili was the secret.) Ken D made a "rustic" salsa out of home grown cherry tomatoes, jalapenos, cilantro, red onion, and lime juice.
