Tacos that will leave your mouth watering for more!

The blend of fresh ingredients and flavors, create a party in your mouth! Maybe it is me, but I love the pico blend in this recipe. I will give you a heads up though, I used an entire bunch of cilantro, so if you are not a cilantro lover just reduce the amount to your flavor preference. Hopefully, you enjoy this recipe as much as I did!
