Shredded Chicken Tacos with Strawberry Mango Salsa (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

Is it weird that I love having fruit for dinner? I love the tangy sweetness of fruit with savory and salty flavors.

Of course, I’m a fruit and veggie fanatic. Especially berries of any kind. I’m obsessed. In fact, if I didn’t cook so much for my family and all of the picky eaters in it than I could probably devote an entire blog to thinking up ways to use berries. For real.

Anyway, I never have trouble finding ways to use strawberries but I have been dying to make salsa with them. Of course, if you make salsa then you’re going to need something to put it on. I made these super easy shredded chicken tacos the other night with this strawberry mango salsa and it was amazing. You seriously need to try them.

When I say easy I mean like really easy. We eat rotisserie chickens in one form or another at least once a week and this is one of my favorite ways to use the meat because everyone can customize their own taco with what they like and no one complains (well, most of the time).

Can you tell that I am really wanting to keep this short? I wrote an entire recipe out earlier only to have it disappear for no apparent reason which means I have to write it all over again. Don’t you hate when that happens? Writing recipes is not something I get over-thrilled about. It’s definitely not my favorite part of blogging. Just sayin.

It’s worth it though because I really want to share these with you guys. Honestly, it’s more of a guideline/inspiration than a recipe because tacos are something that you have to make to your taste. I added stuff that I had on hand but you can throw anything you want on these. Just don’t skip out on the salsa. It’s a must.

Tacos are my love language, I'm pretty sure. Fruity and savory together is the best! The sweetness and acidity of the fruit balances the other flavors and brightens everything up. Make mine extra spicy please!

Extra spicy, coming up! "Tacos are my love language" I like that one. Thanks @jaymorebeet. Have a great week!

Congratulations @gringalicious,
Yummy, Taco! :)
I am from Venezuela and in my house we have avocado trees and in the year we have the fortune to eat of its fruits more than 3 times a year. Just now this fruit is in season.
nice images!

Fantastic, I would love to have an avocado tree in my house. Here in North Idaho, it gets too cold in the winter for avocado trees to grow. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment @luzneryvera
