My Favorite Weeknight Tacos
Kendall and I usually have tacos at least once a week. Sometimes twice and occasionally three times! No shame here. 😉 haha. We eat tacos a lot and I have tried many different combinations but I have found, the simpler, the better! I can’t eat dairy, but Kendall can and I don’t think he even added any cheese or sour cream to these tacos because the flavors already work so well together. Although, if you want to add sour cream and cheese, go for it! We like to put cabbage, tomatoes, avocado, red onion, cilantro and a squeeze of lime on ours. I love these corn tortillas for this recipe.…
