These baja shrimp tacos are a tasty treat. Lightly fried shrimp with tangy coleslaw creates a balanced flavor profile. This recipe features one of our favorite herbs (cilantro) and a pop of lime to finish it off. Go to real simple for step by step instructions.

Classic Beef Taco

Our list of taco recipes wouldn’t be complete without a classic beef taco. Seasoned with chili powder, paprika, cumin, and crushed red pepper, the ground beef is tender and flavorful. Top with your favorite veggies, your choice of taco shell, and enjoy this recipe by Ree Drummond.

Texas Chile Short Rib Tacos

We wouldn’t be a proper Texan company if we didn’t include some Texas style tacos. These chile short rib tacos from Food & Wine are utterly divine. It’s a little more complicated than our other recipes, but it’s totally worth your time. The secret ingredient to the stellar sauce? Chocolate.
