The Healthy Taco Boat

What comes to mind when you think of tacos? Most likely salsa, meat, some form of wrap or crunchy tortilla chips. As a mom who wanted to instill in her kids healthy eating habits, I am always on the lookout for nutritious alternatives. So this week I served up the Healthy Taco Boat made with baby Romaine lettuce leaves. In the boat were some shredded chicken and cheese topped with creamy avocados and home-made salsa. For those of you who are dairy free, just skip the cheese. BTW… the only place I found these cute baby Romaine lettuce hearts is at Costco. If the lettuce is limp, soak it in water for about 5-10 minutes to give it a little crunch.

My three kiddos loved it. Eat to your health!
