This recipe was quick, easy and delicious! The cucumbers are so good in this recipe, and I sprinkled some low-fat cheddar on top - YUM!

This has been a family summer favorite at our house for years. The fixings are so versatile, the kids can do tacos and Grandpa and I do the salad thing. We skip the cucumber, though.

simple, great flavor and so easy. nice break from the standard. Adjust the salsa and chipole for a little less spice if needed.
