National Taco Day

Hey Babes! 

Today is National Taco Day and honestly I fucking love tacos! Who doesn’t? Well, honestly my parents are not big fans of Mexican food, which is truly just heartbreaking if you ask me. I mean, I enjoy a ground beef, iceberg lettuce, hard shell taco at home and I will also devour a taco from Chipotle with their corn salsa. Ah, well now I am starving! 

So, what would be on my perfect taco? 

First of all, I love a flight of mini tacos with a fresh soft tortilla! Three tacos is the perfect amount for me. 

For the meat, I will always choose a chicken taco over anything else. I don’t eat fish and I am a little finicky about red meat, so chicken it is! But, I do prefer shredded poultry to pieces of chicken. 

Now that we know what kind of base and meat will make up the taco, it’s time for the fun part! In a perfect world, I would have pico de gallo, pickled red onions, cotija cheese and cilantro on my taco. 

While it’s what is on the inside that counts, the outside or the sides to a taco are as equally important. I need a good guacamole with my tacos and of course a little more pico de gallo or fresh salsa and a lime wedge! In my humble opinion, a lime wedge is crucial to a good taco. 

Black beans, rice and street corn are not essential to a good taco, but they do in fact elevate the meal as a whole! I just love sides. Oooh, and don’t forget to leave some tortilla chips on the table to cleanse the palette. 

And that would be my perfect taco. I don’t ask for much, do I? What would be on your perfect taco?
