You may be a traditional purist who wants to leave regular tacos alone and eat them just as they were intended. Perhaps you are a culinary adventurer who likes to push limits. Maybe you fall somewhere in between; you want the traditional version of your favorite dish but are willing to experiment. No matter where you are on the scale, here are three twists to try on Taco Tuesday in Chicago, IL.
Try a Different Meat
Even if you love beef, other tasty meat options are worth trying. Pork tenderloin is a leaner meat that contains a lot of protein and is loaded with B vitamins. Chicken is a leaner meat to try on your next taco Tuesday in Chicago, IL. You may be pleasantly surprised at the taste differences.
Try a Meatless Option
There are plenty of options for those who want to try a meatless version. Either pinto beans or black beans can hold their own and add lots of plant-based protein. However, don’t be afraid to try roasted veggies for a base. Roasted cauliflower, zucchini, and red peppers dusted with chili powder and other seasonings are worth a try.
Wrap It!
Stuffing your seasoned meat into a halved bell pepper gives you the same crunch you desire but drastically cuts the calories and carbohydrates. You can also use large leafy greens as a shell. Fill them with seasoned ground meat and add cumin and salsa for a new twist on a comforting classic.
