My family loves tacos, and I often look for creative and different ways to serve them. I like using fresh ingredients that I can easily find in my local market to prepare a tasty yet budget-friendly menu. That's why today I am sharing with you some crunchy tuna tacos with the fresh taste of ceviche that always takes me back to the palapas setup along the stretches of beach across Mexico.
