A different twist on traditional tacos and a great way to sneak veggies into your kid’s diet. This mixture may also be served over pasta or brown rice rather than using tortillas.

We enjoyed this recipe very much. I think next time I would leave out the bacon as the chipotle/adobo/ chili powder flavors along with the bacon were a little off for us. We like our food spicy so I added 1 additional chipolte chile and used an extra tbsp of adobo sauce. Loved that pork was the choice of meat as it married so beautifully with the chiles. Served in great big burrito shells with sour cream to cool it all down. Made delicious leftovers as well. Thank you for sharing.
