We love a good taco—and by “good taco,” we don’t mean the greasy fast-food version. All three of these variations are easy to make and impressive enough to serve at your next gathering. Who knows? One might even become your new signature dish!
01
PULLED CHICKEN TACOS WITH SEASONED TACO SHELLS
Our friend Ayesha Curry made these on her cooking show, Ayesha’s Home Kitchen, and the secret ingredient is in the shells rather than its fillings. A coating that includes cumin, chili powder, and coriander will give your taco vessel a kick you never knew you needed. Get the recipe.
02
ROPA VIEJA MINI TACOS
These HGTV-approved mini tacos are party-perfect because they can be prepped ahead of time, then assembled right before your guests arrive. You can even set up a taco bar with all the ingredients and invite everyone to make their own bite-size treats! Get the recipe.
03
CRUNCHY SEAWEED TACOS
We love sushi, and we love tacos, so we’re intrigued by these sushi tacos. Plus, they’re super easy to make—once you have the salmon, seaweed, avocado, and seasonings, all you have to do is stack ’em up and wrap ’em up. Get the recipe.
