    Can you make ahead?

    Fridge: Potatoes and Mushroom Tacos: After mixture cools off, place in an airtight container in the fridge for 7 days max.

    Pickled Onions and Jalapenos: Pickled onions and jalapenos can be made a day or two in advance. After sauce cools off, place in an airtight container in the fridge for 7 days max.
