Street tacos layered with pulled pork carnitas , crunchy cabbage, red onion, cheese, and cilantro make an awesome dinner any night of the week. My family gives these tacos ten thumbs up every time we make them.
A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to have four awesome friends visit and spend the weekend with me.
We enjoyed an absurd amount of really great food, talked and laughed non stop, and spent almost a full day sitting in holiday traffic. (Note to self, don’t ever head to Sedona on a holiday weekend, it’s ugly.)
One night while we were hanging out at the house, my friend Sandra made these street tacos for us.
The tacos are so simple, and yet, they taste amazing. Don’t skip that squeeze of lime on each taco, it absolutely makes them!
