Oh! Tacos!

by Angie

 

 

Oh, how I can be obsessed with tacos if they are good. I just love them! Last time when I went to Mexico I was eating them 5 days in a row until I got satisfied.

What I have done here is super delicious lime spiced shrimp, chipotle coleslaw, pico de gallo and guacamole mix. They are wrapped in a home-made corn tortilla and dressed in a wedge of lime.

Tacos are just a simple food but so delicious and satisfying. They are easy to make, you can use whatever food you want and make your favorite version. This one is one of my favorites! I always make an extra batch so I can use them for a couple of days- yes a couple of days!

Tacos are part of my food to go on every trip- especially if you find a good Mexican restaurant!

Enjoy!
