It's Taco Night

Taco night is the easiest way to make everyone around our table happy. Our kids fill tortillas with veggies and protein they like, Adi covers his with hot sauce, and I load my tortilla up with the perfect combination of all my favorite flavors.

Our taco nights aren’t traditional. They typically consist of tortillas, a slaw, and a protein, and I’ll throw veggies on the table for my kids to snack on before dinner. If those end up in a tortilla, great. The slaw and proteins are great to save for a quick lunch the next day. Just toss them in a bowl.

Obviously, the whole point of giving you these recipes is allowing you to customize them to your taste. With these, you have 16 different taco possibilities, each one uniquely delicious. And make it authentic to YOUR family’s taco night—add your favorite hot sauce, top them with cheese, or serve with sour cream on the side. Do what makes you happy.

Here’s what’s on the menu:

  • Protein Options: Easy Ribeye, Airfryer Fish, Taco Tofu, Shredded Chicken

  • Veggie Pairings: Summer Corn Salad, Easy Slaw, Taco Slaw, Supermarket Slaw
