When I saw this idea on adding popcorn to tacos on this cookbook, my Mexican gene got scared. ? But later, the more I thought of it, the more I liked it. I just couldn’t think of a more different and fun way to eat tacos. And… of course to add (kind of hide) not very popular veggies in them.
You know I have a crush with zucchini , I prepare them as noodles , carpaccio , soup …. everything !!! Santiago and Romina kind of like them but not Sofia. So …. I made a delicious filling of zucchini, corn, and onions for the taquitos. To the popcorn, I add some chili powder and salt.
???? ???? ???? ???? ????Yummmmyyyyy!
