Hawaiian Tacos
Oh, this is YUMMY! Another Special Request, this time from Beth. I've made this many, many times and somehow there are never leftovers for my lunch the next day. It is a simple meal to take to someone who could use a boost. You can always tone down the spices if you know that your family isn't a fan of spicy food. But please, don't skip making the Hawaiian Pineapple Salsa. It really is what makes this so yummy (I could eat it by the spoon-full).
Hawaiian Tacos:
1 lb Bulk Italian Sausage
1/2 Cup Chopped White Onion
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
Dash Tabasco Sauce
12 Taco Shells or warmed Corn Tortillas
1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Hawaiian Pineapple Salsa:
3 Roma Tomatoes, seeded, chopped, and drained
1 Cup seeded, chopped Cucumber
1 8-oz can Pineapple Tidbits, drained -OR- 1 Cup diced fresh Pineapple
1/3 Cup diced Sweet Onion
1-2 fresh Jalapeno Peppers, seeded and chopped -OR- dash Red Pepper Flakes
2 Tablespoons snipped fresh Cilantro
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
In a large skillet cook Sausage, Onion, and Garlic until Sausage is browned and Onion is tender; stir to break up Sausage. Drain off fat. Stir in Tabasco Sauce. Spoon meat mixture into taco shells. Top with Hawaiian Pineapple Salsa and sprinkle with Cheese. Makes 12 Tacos, serves 4.

This sounds interesting to try. My family is rather a meat and potato family, so I'm not sure what they would think.
