Del Taco Introduces Turkey Tacos

Let’s face it. We don’t always have the time to cook and slave away in the kitchen to make a wholesome, healthy meal. Some fast food places are finally catching onto this and are offering up some healthier options to help us out. This is where Del Taco comes in.  It has become one of my go to places for a quick  yet delicious meal.

Del Taco introduced Turkey Tacos earlier this month, making the company the first Mexican fast food chain to offer ground turkey as a protein option. Del Taco’s Turkey Tacos feature lean, seasoned ground turkey that has 33 percent less fat than its seasoned beef option  and offers the same craveable flavor. I personally liked the Turkey Tacos more than I like their beef tacos.  Each Turkey Taco has only 150 calories.  Del Taco is also offering up a Turkey CrunchTada Tostada, an extension of their popular CrunchTada product line.

At the low price of $1.29, the new Turkey Tacos are served in a crunchy corn or warm flour tortilla with freshly grated cheddar cheese, crisp lettuce and pico de gallo, made fresh daily at each Del Taco location.

Earlier this month I told you about the awesome Knott’s Merry Farm events currently going on over at Knott’s Berry Farm. They will  now be having an awesome New Year’s Eve Party, which I will be attending thanks to Giga Savvy. Snoopy sure knows how to party, so it is sure to be a blast! If you need a fun, family-friendly place to celebrate and ring in the new year, then come and check out what Knott’s has to offer!   With special fireworks, live entertainment, extended hours with Knott’s signature rides and attractions, it is bound to be a night to remember!

KNOTT’S IS READY TO PARTY ON NEW YEAR’S EVE

New entertainment includes Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies along with a dramatic midnight countdown with fireworks. Knott’s New Year’s Eve celebration is the place to ring in 2014.

Special one-night-only entertainment serves up family fun for a variety of ages and interests, including the Midnight Party on the Midway! Count down the New Year with music, stilt walkers, party hats, and noisemakers for everyone.

What’s New This Year?

*Knott’s Sky Cabin,  will be adorned with special lighting effects and spectators will watch as it dramatically rises to the top of the “K” tower to count down the final moments of 2013. The cabin will reach the top at the stroke of midnight and the skies above Knott’s will be ablaze with colorful fireworks!

LA County Fair: It’s Fair Time! Fair, Food, & Fun! + Ticket Giveaway

By: Erin

Disclosure: I was invited out to the Media Food Preview Night at the LA County Fair and I was provided with a 4 pack of tickets with a parking pass to the LA County Fair. All opinions are my own and I’ve been going to this fair for as long as I can remember. 😉

It’s that time of year again folks, and you know what that means! It’s time for the LA County Fair. All the rides, games, shows, concerts,  new animal exhibits and of course one of the main attractions, the FOOD!! Every year, the food is a huge draw at the fair, and as usual will not disappoint .  You will see the oh so familiar fried food fare from longtime fair favorites such as Chicken Charlie’s, but the fair does have some Gluten-Free options, one of my personal favorites; Terri’s Berries and then there is the Los Angeles International Wine & Spirits Marketplace. The Fair started last Friday, August 30th and will run through September 29th. This past Wednesday I was invited out to a food preview for a sneak peek of what’s in store for this year’s UN-LEASH Your Inner Fair at the LA County Fair!

This year the fair has been turned into “Calitopia,” where you can keep cool with underwater and animal adventures like those found in San Diego, animation workshops and Enterprise exhibits from Hollywood as well as wine tasting experiences straight from Napa Valley.

NOW! Onto the Food and Giveaway that you are probably here for. 😉 You can find these food vendors while out and about at the fair this year as well as many others.

The FOOD!!

Be the first to try out the new Krispy Kreme Hamburger ($9.95), the Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joes ($7.75), Totally Fried Bacon Wrapped Pickles ($6.75), Waffle Dogs, and if you want something on the lighter side, they do have chicken kabobs. Don’t forget dessert! They also have the Totally Fried Twinkie that you can get with either chocolate or strawberry sauce drizzled on top.

Chicken CharlieChicken Charlie himself was there, so I just had to stop and get a picture taken with this famous fair icon. 🙂
