My least favorite recipe are the ones that sound like I should like them. And they're good recipes, but
they just don't do it for me. This is one of those recipes. It's a good recipe. Just not for me. 

I think I'll just continue to eat my tacos like normal tacos. And also, it's not spicy at all. It needed some more spice for me.
