Soft or Crispy Mini Pepper Taco's Paleo & Whole30
Soft or crispy? Which would you choose? These little peppers pack such a punch of flavor, they compliment the "taco meat" mixture soooo nicely.
I honestly can't decide if I like the crisp crunch of the fresh pepper taco or the delicate soft texture and robustness that the baked soft taco has. The good new with these is that you don't have to!
You may end up with extra filling depending on how many you make - which I think is a bonus. I am highly considering making taco stuffed peppers with some big bell peppers too. Topped with red onion, black olives, salsa and chunky guac?! What more could you want!!!
