What up, Gluten-Free fam?
If you’re anything like me, you know that being GF makes it hard AF to miss out on Taco Tuesday. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve ignored my dietary needs simply because I can’t resist some bomb tacos.
Thankfully, there’s a whole line of tortillas and taco shells from Siete that are GF, and also delicious. For this recipe, I used the cassava flour tortillas, and honestly, you can’t even tell they’re grain free. You can thank me later.

Roughly chop the cilantro, slice the jalepeno and avocado, shred the cabbage, cut 1/2 the lime into wedges (reserve the other half to juice for the sauce).
