15 Taco Meals To Create At Home
I will never, ever pass up an opportunity to eat some delicious Tacos, especially when Guacamole is involved! I’ve always been used to eating ground beef tacos until my world was opened up to pulled pork tacos (insanely good) and, drum roll please, FISH TACOS. Last summer my husband and I traveled to Hawaii and ate at a different Fish Taco stand or restaurant every day. It was total heaven! With the list I’ve compiled below, there is now a BREAKFAST TACO. Yup, you can officially eat Tacos for three meals a day and no one will think it’s weird. So whip out your favorite Taco toppings and let’s get cooking!
1. Breakfast Taco
Filled up with bacon and eggs, this Taco is the perfect way to start your day with your favorite foods. Reference our Salsa article HERE to create some homemade salsa to top off this healthy breaky!

Currently I am not eating a ton of carbs, which can make Cinco De Mayo a little sad. But with the concept of lettuce tacos, I’m excited all over again! This option is also great for Gluten Free or Vegan eaters who still love tacos.

13. Harissa Portobello Mushroom Tacos
Portobello Mushrooms are one of my favorite substitutes for meat. With a similar texture, it absorbs whatever spices you season it with, making it super flavorful and perfect for a very healthy taco like this one!

14. Taco Stuffed Avocado
This looks like one perfect meal to bring to work for lunch! It’s super fresh, filled with all those healthy fats and high in protein. Don’t forget to add some salsa and sour cream to take it to the next level.

15. Caribbean Chicken Tacos
Caribbean food is just so good! It’s the Caribbean seasoning that sets it apart from the traditional Taco and luckily, most grocery stores will have a Caribbean seasoning available for you to pick up and change your taco game!
