TACO ACCOMPANIMENT TRIO

Let’s be honest – what would tacos be without their delicious accompaniments anyways!? I served this trio wiht my Taco Fiesta – but I think they are quite versatile! I find the Creamy Coleslaw & Fresh Pico De Gallo pairs well with Blackened Tilapia Tacos while the Guacamole pairs best with Grilled Halloumi Tacos – but you do you!

1. Combine all ingredients (except cabbage) and mix well.
2. Once well combined, add in the cabbage and stir mix until fully combined.
3. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes prior to serving. 

Pico de Gallo Salsa:

2. *Tip: I like my guacamole cold, so I often place my ripe avocados in the fridge in the morning prior to making guac so I can enjoy cold & fresh guacamole in the evening!
