BETTER-FOR-YOU TACO TUESDAY MENU
Written by Just Water
Do you love a good taco Tuesday meal but don't love the post-T.T. hangover, bloat, or guilt that comes with consuming a bucket of tortilla chips and a fishbowl-sized margarita? Don't fret amigos and amigas! We've given Taco Tues a good-for-you spin that serves just as much fiesta flavor with half as many calories. The menu kicks off with a sparkling skinny spicy margarita featuring the perfect pop of fizz and citrus from Lime and Lemon Bubbles. And because a taco without guac is as sad as birthday cake without frosting, we've dropped our go-to lightened-up guacamole that's so good, you could eat it by the spoonful (yes, we've done it. No, we're not sorry). Finally, we end with the pièce de résistance, a tender-as-butter citrus-infused taco recipe that leans on a secret sparkly ingredient to achieve what many would consider taco perfection (yes, we polled the taco snobs and they agree).
So grab your blender, your Bubbles, and your Taco Tuesday besties—let's get this fiesta started!
