Just incase you didn’t get enough inspiration from yesterday’s bean extravaganza post, I wanted to give you one more recipe to add to your ever growing recipe list: these tacos. I posted on twitter shortly after making these tacos that I firmly believed if I ever started a new blog, I’d label “I love tacos.” These in particular pack a rather lovely spicy and garlicky punch. But with that being said, yes, these tacos are spicy: eat with care!
