Orange Barrel volunteers at our local developmental center and one of the activities we do with residents is a weekly cooking class! Wanting to offer a low carb option for some of our friends there, we made cheesy taco shells and then stuffed them with all the traditional ingredients! It worked and everyone gave it a thumbs up! I like to call them my guinea pig class as we like to try new things we’ve never cooked before! They are always excited to be our test group! Want the recipe? Just let me know :)
