Want to know what the most made dish in my house growing up was? Hands down – tacos. It could be partly because they’re one of the easiest things in the world to make, or it could be because my mom knew it was the way to each and every one of our hearts. To this day, I still love tacos. I wanted to vary a traditional taco recipe though and make some yummy Taco Pinwheels! They’re absolutely delicious and {in my opinion} a lot less messy to eat, too!
