Why It Works

  • The whole-wheat tortillas provide a sturdy base for the tacos and add a whole-grain element to the meal.
  • The cilantro adds a fresh, herbaceous flavor to the tacos.
  • The salt and pepper help to season the tacos and bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • The salsa or hot sauce is optional, but it adds a nice kick of flavor to the tacos.
