Exactly, though with fresh ground pepper and a wee bit of salt
sprinkled all over as well for me. Once when I'd planned on a ground
meat "taco gorge-out" thinking I had all I needed, I learned there was
no ground meat at all in the refer. I did have plenty of roast lamb,
so heated chunked up lamb with merely a little more salt and pepper.
Put the tacos together eliminating only the lettuce (can't now remember
why), and those were the best tacos ever. Now whenever a leg o' lamb
is purchased for roasting it's to be the biggest I can find, and tacos
are a definate next-night with any leftover meat portion frozen for
tacos yet another time.
