Notes

Storage: Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave. Make-Ahead: The filling can be made up to 2 days in advance. Simply reheat before assembling tacos. Variations: Add a dash of hot sauce for heat, or top with shredded cheese, salsa, or sour cream (if not vegan). For a gluten-free meal, ensure you use certified gluten-free corn tortillas. Serving Suggestion: These tacos pair wonderfully with a simple side salad or Mexican-style rice.
