Old El Paso family taco night Giveaway

Now that I'm a working mom, it can be very difficult to find time to prepare a meal that my whole family can enjoy together.  Since I'm working evenings, we don't have a lot of opportunities to sit down at the dinner table and eat together anymore.  When we are all home during mealtime I really try hard to have a meal that we can all enjoy.  (In other words, something other than peanut-butter and jelly, yet won't be thrown on the floor by my adorable, appreciative, open-to-trying-new-things children...)
Old El Paso is a company that strives to make products that families will enjoy, can afford, and can be prepared quickly to fit in with a busy family schedule.  Setting aside a time once a month for family taco night is a great idea to stay connected with your family while enjoying some delicious food together.  Old El Paso has a great variety of dinner kits, dips and sides, enchilada sauce, refried beans, seasoning mixes, shells, taco sauce and salsa to help satisfy anyone's Mexican Food Cravings.


Through my connection with MyBlogSpark, I was asked to enjoy some Old El Paso products with my family during our own family taco night.  I was sent some cute Mexican-themed serving dishes, a taco seasoning mix, and a $10 Gift Card for our meat and fixings.  We opted for the soft tacos, I went easy on the seasoning for the kid's meat, and loaded it up with cheese and sour cream.  I'm happy to announce that Old El Paso products were a hit in my house, as my children were satisfied and my floor stayed clean!


How about having a family taco night at your house?  One of my lucky readers will win a prize pack from Old El Paso through MyBlogSpark containing a seasoning packet, some Mexican-themed serving dishes, and a $10 Gift Card to buy your meal ingredients.  Leave a comment on this post telling me why you'd like to win to be entered!

Sorry about the "gap" in my original post and now. My machine keeps "surprizing" me by closing windows when I least expect it.
