We all love tacos, or at least I love tacos. These summer tacos changed my eating habits for 3 weeks straight. I still can’t get enough. If you love dill - these tacos are for you. I taught this recipe at my most recent Eat to Live workshop, and now I am sharing the recipe because it’s just too good not to, and I believe we all deserve to love these summer tacos as much as I do.
