T is for Tortilla

So the plan for today was to make tacos and let Jocie and Mew add whatever ingredients they wanted to them. They were not so fond of the idea, so we compromised. We still used Tortillas- but Jocie and Mew each used them in a different way.
For Jocie, we took soft shell Tortillas and lightly coated them with oil. Then, we sprinkled them with sugar and cinnamon and baked them until they were slightly browned and crispy. She was so excited to try them. As soon as hers cooled she tried a bite. she LOVED it and ended up eating the whole thing and wanted to make one for her dad as well. We later made a few with apple pie filling on top as well. She did not want to try those, but her dad and I liked them!

For Mew, we made taco meat, and put it on softened tortilla shells with cheese and cut it into smaller pieces. He wanted to eat the filling but not the tortilla parts, but when he asked for seconds, he still wanted them to be wrapped in the shell first. Silly Mew HAHA He had fun taking them apart and scraping out the meat and cheese.

Thinking of a few more T activities to try out in the next few days if we are able to.
