If we're eating at a Mexican restaurant, chances are Robert is ordering the tacos al carbon. It's one of his favorites, and this recipe from Cooking Light is an excellent version to make at home. The amount of garlic called for seems excessive (8 cloves?!), so even though I half the recipe for the two of us, I only use 2 cloves of garlic, which is plenty. I don't make any other substitutions or changes.

This is some good stuff. 8 garlic cloves would be ridiculous!
I love that you are like my very own personal Food Network Chef. Who would have ever thought you would be such the foodie!?! I dig it. And, I really love that you are cookin' your man TACOS!
xo, stephers
From Taco Bell to Tacos al carbon- what happened to the Lindsay I knew?!?! And, do you take the photos of your own food or others or both? I am always curious if it is yours!
Haha, seriously! But don't worry, I still drive-through Taco Bell for lunch quite often. I save the gourmet for dinner. :) As far as the photos, about half are mine and the rest are from the websites. You can tell which ones are mine because a) they don't have professional lighting, and b) they are always photographed on our ottoman.
Glad to know now! Well, your food always looks so good!! And, I am glad to hear that you still frequent Taco Bell. I was worried.
