Happy that at least ONE of my favorite teams made it to the ACC playoffs this year. We won’t go into the SEC playoffs – but at least the SEC will be represented in the final four playoffs. At any rate, we’ll have some fun with friends and enjoy football regardless of who’s on top!

Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 4 minutes (do not let brown.) Crumble in the beef and cook, using a wooden spoon to break up lumps, until meat is no longer pink, about 6 minutes.

Add tomato paste, chili powder, oregano, salt and water. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until taco filling is heated through. Remove from heat and stir in vinegar.

Spoon a scant 1/3 cup taco filling into each tortilla and serve with desired toppings.There are times when you just run out of hours in the day or energy, and that’s where dishes like this one come in handy.
One of the best things about tailgating is dessert! Here are some of my favorites – and you may notice there aren’t alot of chocolate chip cookies included. Here’s the reason – they don’t transport well and keep in the hot humid south. I’ve taken many a wonderful batch of cookies to a tailgate and voila – cookie crumbles. So the following recipe is one that transports well, can be frozen in advance if needed, and of course, are DELISH!
