    Photo of two Shredded Beef Tacos with Chipotle Lime Slaw in a small white dish. When I think of family meals, one of the first things that comes to mind in tacos. When my husband and I were first a family, even before the kids came along, we had taco night once a week. It was always when Friends was on TV, and it was always something I looked forward to all week.

    We’ve continued this tradition now that we have kids. Of course, the TV is gone, and instead we all gather around the table. As hectic as life can get I look forward to that time together, knowing that no matter what else is going on we always make time for Taco Thursdays together.
