Mango and Bean Taco
Who doesn't love to eat a rich and colorful Taco? A taco filled with wholesome beans, lettuce, a touch of cream, cheese along with an added bonus of tropical delightful mangoes will make this Mexican food even more scrumptious. First time i ever tried Mexican food was in one of those popular chain of Mexican fast foods. I should say that I hated it. I almost stopped eating Mexican food for years. Later, I rediscovered the richness of the aromatic spices used in Mexican food with a long desire to learn about this cuisine. I started trying good Mexican dine in eat outs and certainly, I fell in love with it. I wish I had done this before instead of eating out at fast foods.
