In the Heat of Summer… Taco Recipe


In the Heat of Summer…  Taco Recipe


 Garden Tomato   

Too hot to cook?

Summer tomatoes are here and make delicious salads and dishes.
Taco’s make a delicious dinner that is quick and easy to prepare, without overheating your kitchen. Simply chop up some garden-ripe tomatoes, fresh cilantro, zucchini, and red or green onion.  Place them in a bowl, then toss with a little fresh squeezed lime juice and a sprinkle of cumin and smoked chipotle pepper    I recently found Blue-Corn Taco Shells made by Garden of Eatin’ and 365 Brand (Wholefoods market) which are non-GMO and have a superior flavor and texture over the yellow corn version. Spread a layer of your favorite refried beans or refried black beans; add a layer of leftover quinoa if you like then scoop in your seasoned tomato-veggie mix and some shredded greens (optional). You can add a dollop of guacamole if you don’t have a ripe avocado.
Remember…Anything goes in summer tacos… just load ‘em up and enjoy the summer-fresh flavors!
