    Before any of my parties, I find myself thinking

    Ok, now that I know what the theme is… what in the heck am I going to make?

    Most of the time, I LOVE to fix appetizers for a party, more than main dishes. It’s easier for the guests to pick at all evening, and it leaves a ton of variety instead of trying to pick one or two main dishes, HOPING everyone likes it.

    I’ve found that a lot of you are looking for party appetizers too, so I wanted to make it super easy for you to find some great recipes and ideas. Besides, that’s what we’re all about here, isn’t it? (Real life. Well Styled.)

        Hi Linda! I’m happy to! But I’m not sure which black bean taco recipe you’re talking about. Are you talking about the taco pinwheels? https://fantabulosity.com/easy-party-appetizer-taco-pinwheels
        Or we also have the chicken tacos with black beans: https://fantabulosity.com/dinner-recipe-quick-easy-soft-chicken-tacos/
        If it’s one of those, the links should take you to the instructions on how to put them together! But if you have any trouble finding it, please let me know! 🙂
