Nothing tastes better to me than a summer seaside taco!
There is something about the sun and sand,
combined with the fresh and slightly spicy crunch of a taco.
Our closest beach doesn't have any restaurants close by so when we want
tacos ala playa we bring our own.
My favorite way to do it is combine most of the ingredients before hand...
(I love to shred the veggies, chicken and cheese too,
it's easy and reminds me of high school when the surfers would talk about shredding the waves!)
then stuff our crunch shells once we are ready to eat.
Enjoy the view...
Tacos ala Playa
makes 8 tacos
1/2 small cabbage shredded
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
2 carrots peeled and shredded
5 radishes sliced or shredded
1 can of black beans drained and rinsed
Toss all above ingredients with:
Juice of 2-3 limes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp. cumin
good pinch of kosher salt
Fill hard taco shells and top with shredded cheese (I like pepper jack), salsa, sliced jalapeños, guacamole and sour cream to your liking.
