We’ve been trying to do a ‘family’ sort of night at least one night a week where we all get together as a family to have dinner, and some fun. About a week ago, we decided to have a family taco night, one of our family’s favorite foods but we were able to do taco night a little different and make it a little more fun thanks to Old El Paso!
We got to enjoy our yummy Old El Paso soft tacos together as a family while playing a really fun game called EL Tacodor! This game was fun for all of us and gave us some giggles during our night.
Although the girls were still a little young for some things such as trivia, we still had a blast with the following challenges:
• Meat-N-Greet: Name 5 things that you’d bring home from your favorite vacation place and let the table guess where you traveledThis was such a fun and interesting way to have family night done just a little differently, and now you and your family can try it out, and have some taco night fun as well by taking part in the El Tacodor game. All you have to do is download the El Tacodor game sheets and rules right here, and it’s FREE!
• Lettuce Play: Act out different animals – no noises! Your partner must guess 3
• Lime Light: Cheer, “We love tacos, yes we do! We love tacos, how ‘bout you?”
• Say Cheese: Pronounce the name of everyone at the table backwards!
Why not ‘spice’ up your family night and try something different from Old El Paso, enjoy some food, fun and games all night!
WIN IT!!!
One lucky reader will win themselves an Old El Paso El Tacodor Prize Pack! This prize pack includes:
- Information and a link to the El Tacodor Game

Instead we have an evening where we plan everything together.

We have an assembly line when making our Taco's. The bowls of meat, lettuce, tomato, cheese, sour cream and anything that someone desires to put on the taco is laid out. It's fun, we are together and then watch a video.

It's always fun to see what ingredients everyone will use that night. It always changes at our house.
Favorite part of taco night--eating them AND not spilling anything on my shirt.
Having our hound pick up any droppings from the taco bar on the kitchen floor

My favorite taco night is having everyone together, with our favorite toppings. And the conversation - someone always tries to speak Spanish!

We like to each take out favorite topping and prepare it, Grating the cheese, dicing the tomatoes or onions, shredding the lettuce etc.... and then each preparing our own taco just the way we like it.
