I’ll be honest, most days I’m a soft taco kind of girl through & through. But these babies definitely have me singing a different tune! They’re easy to make, baked instead of fried & are loaded with the best citrus marinated chicken too!🤗 (And let’s not forget about that sauce because holy moly - it’s a winner!😉)

Hope you’re all having a terrific Tuesday loves!😊💕

1. Combine your marinade ingredients & pour them to a plastic bag with your chicken thighs. Marinate for at least 30 minutes. Then place your chicken in a baking dish & bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Shred the chicken once it’s done.
2. Next, place your tortillas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper & spray them with avocado oil. Bake the tortillas at 400 degrees for 2 minutes. Then take them out of the oven & layer one side with cheese, shredded chicken & red onion. Fold the other side over the top & bake your tacos for 10-12 more minutes (or until crispy).

Fresh WINTER FRUIT SALAD with ORANGE POPPY SEED DR

Fresh WINTER FRUIT SALAD with ORANGE POPPY SEED DRESSING! Simple, easy & just what I’m craving today!🤗 [Ad]
.
Anyone else been having a moment with citrus lately or is that just me?!🙋🏼‍♀️ Also is anyone else completely baffled by all the different types of citrus we have now too??🤯 I was walking around @sprouts the other day & must have seen at least 10 different varieties! (Which is probably why I love shopping there during citrus season tbh.😉) Like these vintage heirloom navel oranges - they’re a little sweeter & easier to peel than most oranges which makes them perfect for snacking or adding to salads! And if you’re going to have a fruit salad - make this one! It’s sweet, a little tart, so easy & so refreshing too!🤗
.
Hope you’re all having a great Wednesday loves!😊💕
