Hello everyone, I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Mike, and I have a problem: I make amazing tacos at all hours of the night. Well, I had made the meat over the weekend so I just *assembled* these. But still. Mmm tacos.

(I can afford to eat 4 tacos after the gym because I did a crazy workout, and these are my super secret turkey and mushroom tacos that have been a staple of my diet while I’ve lost now 56 lbs and counting. Yes you can eat enjoyable things while being healthy.)

Did you intentionally post this 10 times or is kinja being kinja?

Kinja is being kinja.

I made us these bad boys last week.

Chipotle tofu tacos with black refried beans.

Wrong. Go back to Chipotle ir wherever you made this nonsense up. Or eat some real tacos.

I think Kinja agrees with me

I will build a wall around every single taco in this country and make you pay for it.

I do not understand this sentence. Am I paying for the wall? I’ll just make my own, either way.

I approve! Although personally I skip doubling up my corn tortillas, even though that’s more authentic.

One tortilla just tends to break apart if you don't want them to crispy.

I have a solution to that! I got a tortilla warmer. I crisp up the tortillas a bit, put them in the warmer while I do the rest of the prep work, then pop the whole warmer in the microwave for 30 seconds before taco assembly. Crisping them keeps them holding together while nuking them in the warmer lets them steam a bit so they stay soft.

That looks amazing! I can almost taste them with some lime squeezed on top.

I just start warming a skillet up when I start grilling the meat in the Jorge. By the time the meat is coming out, I’ll have at least one warm and slightly crispy tortilla ready to fill. The only reason to double them is that you’re using mediocre tortillas, letting them sit, or doing something wrong. For example: Never apply any liquid sauce more than moments before consuming...

Mmm... Tacos...

Carne asada-ish (had a bunch of queso fresco that I needed to eat):

Pollo asado & grilled poblano:

This is a false statement.

Too true; too many tacos have disintegrated on me due to the tortilla’s loss of structural integrity.

I just have to say that you could fold any food in a corn tortilla and i’d give it a nibble.

The tortillas are of decent quality, we just prefer them not very crispy.

Remember, it’s not as important how you make the taco so long as you make a taco. Unless you use one of those hard tortilla shells; that’s some bullshit right there.
