There is one thing all foodies can agree on and it's that tacos are a game-day food. That's why Old El Paso is cashing in, in more ways than one.
Not only did the company enlist the Watt Brothers for its new campaign, but it went to an entirely different level. As you can see from the photo above, the Watt Brothers: JJ, TJ and Derek are all flexing their skills in a new way.
JJ is serving as host as his two young brothers: TJ and Derek go up against each other in multiple different categories. You can find out all of the info on the website, but I wanted to share some of the highlights as they're putting their very own take on some classic game-day foods and making them in taco form.
While they're professional athletes, sometimes getting behind a camera to cook can make anyone nervous. One of the coolest ones was their take on different pizzas made into tacos with TJ going with Bacon Pineapple Pizza, while Derek went with Meaty Pizza. Sounds like something worth trying out for your next game day party, huh? Either way, you can watch the entire series via the brand's website.
Old El Paso also shared some popular taco recipes by state.
As someone who is both a huge fan of the Watt Brothers and Old El Paso products, I feel like that was too fun to not talk about. However, you don't have to rely on one of the Watt recipes if you don't want to. Old El Paso also shared some of the most popular recipes by state, and it's fun to be able to look and see what's trending in each state.
You can find your state below, but some of them just have to be discussed. First is Alabama's which is Strawberry Shortcake Mini Taco Bowls. Am I the only one who hasn't heard of this? According to the Old El Paso website, it's incredibly simple and makes for a tasty and refreshing treat. Plus I'm sure most of us have tortillas sitting around the house so this is a unique one but makes a lot of sense.
Some of the other unlikely picks are DC's Double Layer Tacos, Quick Taco Pizza in New Mexico, and Hot & Spicy Taco Pretzels in Iowa. No matter what you're craving, there is sure to be a tasty taco recipe for you to try from Old El Paso. There's also nothing wrong with just making tacos how you like them with some of Old El Paso's products.
