Tacos El Piquin worked its way up from a food truck to a taqueria in San Antonio, opening its brick-and-mortar location on Huebner Road in 2012. Regulars say Tacos El Piquin uses fresher and tastier ingredients than other taquerias in the area. The salsa bar here offers plenty of fresh options as well, including pickled red onions and roasted serranos. Popular menu items include the asada and al pastor tacos, the quesadillas, the tostra al pastor, the El Impossible taco, the huarache, and the costra.

Locals say that Tacos El Piquin serves some of San Antonio’s most authentic Mexican cuisine. You’ll often find expatriates from Mexico dining here.

How to Make Your Own Potato Chips

April 7, 2015 10:10 am

It’s no secret that kids love to snack on potato chips, but they certainly aren’t the healthiest food in the world. Making potato chips at home cuts down on a great deal of saturated fat and sodium, and it’s much easier than you might think. Here are three delicious homemade potato chip recipes that your kids (and you!) will love.

Sweet Potato Chips [preschoolers.about.com]
Add a bit of sweet flavor to the usual potato chips by using nutritious sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes. This recipe takes only three ingredients and 25 minutes to make, and you can season it however you prefer.

Oven-fried Potato Chips [simplyrecipes.com]
If your little ones love the crispy, fried flavor of store-bought potato chips, this recipe will help you to mimic that in a healthier manner. Use them as a side dish or pack them in their lunch boxes for a delicious, homemade surprise.

Oven Baked Potato Chips with Sour Cream and Onion Dip [pbs.org]
The classic combination of chips and dip gets a nutritious (and still kid-friendly) makeover in this simple recipe. By using reduced fat sour cream in the onion dip you get all of the flavor with half of the fat and calories.
