Spice up your Dinner with Old El Paso




My absolute favorite type of food is Mexican. I will eat chips and salsa every day if it would do my body good. When I was younger, I'd ask my mom to make tacos for my birthday dinner. Do you like Tacos as much as I do? Well, if you don't, then you don't know what your missing. Old El Paso has been around for years, and has provided millions of families with a great tasting meal, and an affordable one too.  Old El Paso  offers you everything you need for "Family Taco Night", including taco kits, seasonings, sauces, salsa and beans and a variety of taco shells.


My husband makes a mean chicken enchilada and uses the Old El Paso Taco Seasoning in the sauce. It's gobbled up in seconds. Oh And putting a bit of the seasoning in some sour cream makes for a great dip!

I'm just say'n.




Check out Old El Paso news, great tips, and some fabulous recipes on their site. I already have some of those recipes on my menu for this month. YUMMY!  You can even  print a coupon to save $.60 off two Old El Paso Products.




Courtesy of My Blog Spark , I received  this "Family Taco Night"prize pack,  which included a packet of Old El Paso Taco Seasoning, a  Cactus Chip and Dip Serving Dish, and three Fiesta Chili Pepper serving dishes, and a $10 gift card to purchase the fixings I need to make my tacos.

  You can win a prize pack for your very own!  To enter tell me what your favorite Mexican dish is.

For extra entries:
  • Let someone else fold the laundry today

  • Have some hot chocolate, sit down and do nothing for 15 minutes. YOU DESERVE IT!

  • Like Three Peas on Facebook

The giveaway will end on January 12 and is open to US and Canadian residents only. 

Happy New Year!!! 

Disclosure: The product, prize pack, information, and giveaway have all been provided by Old El Paso through MyBlogSpark

Good luck getting people behind this one. Though you make some VERY fascinating points, youre going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what weve already heard. What are trying to say here? What do you want us to think? It seems like you cant really get behind a unique thought. Anyway, thats just my opinion.
