These tacos are the perfect weeknight meal. They're quick and easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I usually serve them with rice and beans, but they're also great on their own.

These tacos were so easy to make and they tasted delicious. I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of ground turkey and they were still amazing. I'll definitely be making these again.
