Another snow day at home today, and I got tired of creating PowerPoint slides and decided to do a quick post on some elk tacos we made recently.

I have been a fan of Rick Bayless? cooking for some time, after watching his ?Mexico One Plate at a Time? show on PBS for years. His company now makes a series of packaged food products, mostly skillet sauces and other mixes, marketed under Frontera Food Products. If you ever get the chance, pick some of these up as they are terrific.

I love street style tacos, and frequent a taco truck in HSV often to get my fix. For this iteration, I used the Texas Taco Sauce, and while garlicky, was very good. I garnished with some raw red onion, fresh cilantro and Arriba fire roasted salsa, but forgot the crumbled fresco cheese which would have put it over the top.

Overall, we continue to be impressed with how the elk meat fits in to our everyday life, and these tacos were a delicious, quick mid-week treat. The best part is we have not even started eating on the good parts of the elk yet!
