Veggie Tacos

Growing up as an Arizona gal, Mexican food was pretty much available at every street corner.  In my neighborhood, the best Mexican hole in the wall was called Ajo Als.  Luckily, my best friend was a hostess there, so even though there was always a line around the building, I never had to wait too long to eat.  They also had the fastest bus boy in town, so you never sat for more than 30 seconds without warm chips and fresh salsa at your finger tips!  No joke, he worked at lightening speed!

I think the next best thing to Ajo Als is eating Mexican food that doesn't leave you feeling like you need to work it off for the next week.  These veggie tacos will surely hit the spot without dragging you (or your healthy lifestyle) down!
