Happy New Year! Let's start 2014 off right . . . with a good taco recipe.
These tacos were meant to be our "healthy" night dinner. Mine was healthy, but the pictures are of "The Mr.'s" tacos :) Besides from the meat and bean mixture, he loaded his with guacamole, Mexican rice and Feta cheese. I topped mine with only lettuce and tomato.
Both versions were so good and if you choose to make them healthy like my version, I promise it won't taste healthy. I didn't even miss the cheese, which was a shocker. You could even go all out and eat these in a lettuce cup if you wanted.
"The Mr." loved his version too, but of course he did . . . just look at them.
