Cobb Tacos & Blue Cheese Week Linky Party


Shortly after I started eating Blue Cheese my hubby and I went out to lunch where I saw a Cobb Salad on the menu. Of course I wanted it - I was on a Blue Cheese kick at this point! Over the course of lunch, I asked my husband numerous times how I had not been eating Cobb Salads my entire life. He was probably wondering why I was talking so much if the salad was so good. haha 

I still love Cobb Salad, however, now that I have 2 kids I find it much easier to eat things that do not require utensils. These Cobb Tacos are perfect!

For the meat, I used Jennie-O Cracked Pepper Turkey Breast. It was so easy to cube and it tastes great!


I was planning on getting plain soft taco tortillas, but I saw these Mission Artisan Style Tortillas instead. I chose Ancient Grains, which is made with whole grain wheat, amaranth, millet, quinoa, sorghum and teff. These tortillas provide 33 grams of whole grains per serving—earning them the Whole Grains Council stamp of approval! Pretty awesome, not to mention they taste so GOOD. :)


These tacos are kept from being dry by adding a bit of Blue Cheese Dressing before adding any ingredients. It's like a party in your mouth when you take a bite!

I love tacos even though I can only eat them with corn tortillas. These look great :) They remind me of my favorite Mexican place in Dallas, TX - Taco Diner. Great job!
