Cooking Tip

Feta Cheese
Feta is a greek cheese and adds a nice falvor to these tacos. For a more traditional cheese, try a queso fresco or a monterey jack.

Cooking Tip

Roasted Garlic
For roasted garlic in this dish, cut the top off a bulb of garlic exposing the tops of the individual garlic cloves. Preheat the oven to 450 F. Bake garlic for one hour. Or two hours at 350 F.
