Party Foods Tortilla Style

If you live in Dallas, east Dallas especially, you have probably heard of the phenomenon that is Good 2 Go Taco. Located inside the Green Spot gas station on Northcliff and Buckner Blvd (east of the lake) this tiny slice of heaven serves AMAZING food all wrapped inside of a grilled flour tortilla - taco sized!

We're not talking ground beef and cheddar cheese - instead think of grilled chicken with fresh spinach, apples, brie and carmelized onions. Or how about hangar steak, eggs, brunch potatoes and hollandaise sauce... in a TORTILLA!

So, being the guy that owns a party and gift store this little taco joint has meant more than just a daily (yes, I admit it) feeding frenzy... It's a terrific idea on how to entertain!

I don't know about you but one thing I hate is washing dishes after a party. Paper plates are good but then you still need the cutlery...more expense or more washing.

So...how about serving tortilla style? Set out your buffet and let folks build their own idea of a taco. Offer grilled meats or grilled veggies. Throw in some sticky rice or mashed potatoes (another Good 2 Go brilliant idea) and concot a creamy, thick sauce. Let folks load up and roll up the taco of their choice.

To serve these delicacies roll the taco enchilada style (tuck in the end then roll) and wrap up in a piece of foil and voila! You have a handy hand-held meal!

Let me know your favorite combinations - send pictures! It's a whole new way of entertaining - tortilla style!
