I was searching for a chickpea taco recipes online when I came across a picture that inspired me to make these tacos. This was perfect timing because I had red cabbage in the fridge and a ripe avocado I needed to use. These tacos are vegetarian (and vegan) and are done in less than 20 minutes. Taco Tuesday !

When I was a kid, my stepmom used to make these tasty chicken tacos that my family was completely obsessed with, couldn't get enough of, can't eat just one kind of taco. Now, several years later and that stepmom long gone, I decided to try and make a version of those same old tacos that my vegetarian/pescatarian husband could try. I'm happy to say he loves them!

I went deep outside the box tonight. It is of coarse taco tuesday but had no fresh meat ready. I do like to have vegetarian meals several times a week so I thought let's give this a try. I used lentils and spices as my meat substitute. We ate the whole thing! The lentils with added onions gave a look and texture of ground beef. I used spices while cooking the lentils to infuse flavor into them. Then used a boxed taco kit and the flavor packet to finish it off. Healthier and delicious. You really need to try this!

A dish I've seen a lot of recipes for but done my way

In honor of the Lego movie we have adopted the tradition of cooking Tacos every tuesday. We make several variations which are discussed below, but the chicken tacos are our favourite

Finding ways to eat less meat and do less dishes! 😜

My. Mom makes the best i enjoy every time😃

So easy and tasty!

This recipe is a quick, and consists of mostly fresh ingredients. It makes a perfect lunch, adjust your taco fixings to personal preference to enjoy it your way.

I love to cook! I get creative in the kitchen all the time combining both my Spanish and Louisiana roots. I also cook the old recipes that were passed down from mother to daughter going from one generation to the next. I hope you enjoy my chicken breast tacos. The great thing about the way the chicken is prepared here is that you can add the chicken to create another dish of your own. Please add more salt, minced serono pepper, Tony's, Louisiana hot sauce, extra cumin, or whatever you like. My family loves this dish!
