Chicken Tacos
Tuesday, April 29, 2025
"I just want to taco
bout happy things."
I love tacos. They're so easy to make and surprisingly light, yet still
filling. You can never go wrong with a quick taco recipe, and this one comes
together so fast that it'll save you when you don't know what to make or
when you're tight on time.
Having taco shells in your cupboard is a lifesaver, and this is a great way
to use up all the leftover salad ingredients in the fridge or the leftover
meat from a previous meal.
