This is one of my favorites. I LOVE tacos, so why not liquid tacos?

I have done a similar recipe… we put tortilla chips and a slice of Velveeta in the bowl and pour the soup over it… it’s really good like that!
Girl…this was GOOD! We loved it!
LOL! So glad. We love it too. My husband just asked about it the other day.

Thank you

Diced tomatoes with green chiles or a can of each.
Thanks. But I think I will have to buy green chills fresh. Don’t think I will be able to find them in can, or maybe, in pot, but they probably be in vinaiger.
whats in the mexican grilled cheese?
All kinds of good stuff! http://onceamonthmom.com/mexican-grilled-cheese/
Once you freeze it, what’s the best way to get it heated and on the table?
Thaw it out in the refrigerator or reheat over medium low heat on the stove.
