The Swiss chard and roasted red pepper tacos were inspired by a trip to Mexico City. I was walking through a market when I came across a stand selling tacos. The tacos were filled with a variety of ingredients, including Swiss chard, roasted red peppers, and avocado. I decided to try them, and I was immediately hooked. The flavors were so delicious, and the tacos were so filling. I knew that I had to recreate them at home. When I got back home, I started experimenting with different ingredients and flavors. I finally came up with a recipe that I was happy with, and I've been making these tacos ever since.
