Navajo Tacos

As far as I can remember my family has been making Navajo Tacos. When we were younger we would get to choose what we wanted for our birthday dinner. I would always choose Navajo Tacos and an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen. Tonight we had some friends over for tacos and it was delicious. I have finally mastered making the dough from scratch. Every time I make them it makes me think of home and family. It makes me think of Sunday dinners when my Aunt Laurel and my cousins would eat with us. We would have a full house and there would be several conversations going on at the same time and everyone would be going in and out of the kitchen. While Mom was stretching out the dough and somebody was cutting tomatoes and lettuce we would try to sneak pinches of freshly grated cheese. Those memories always make me smile.
