Sausage Tacos

Sausage tacos are a fun and delicious way to change up taco night!

Tacos are one of our favorite meals. I love to serve them to my family, but they also work great when we have friends and family over to eat.

We eat them at least once a week, sometimes twice a week. I love that I can easily change them up so that they are not the same basic tacos every time.

I also love that tacos fit a variety of diets. If you don’t have dietary restrictions you can eat them as is on regular flour tortillas. If you are gluten free you can eat them on corn or gluten free tortillas.

If you are dairy free you can leave off the cheese and sour cream. Low carb diets can just eat everything piled on a plate like a taco salad.

Sausage tacos are pretty much your basic tacos served with sausage as the meat. However they don’t have eggs so they are a little different than your normal sausage breakfast taco.

I add a can of diced tomatoes to these tacos to change it up, but you could easily add salsa instead for a little different flavor.

Our favorite taco toppings are cheese, beans, sour cream, avocado, lettuce, and salsa. You can serve them with whatever toppings that you enjoy.

Mexican rice is a simple side dish perfect for sausage tacos or any taco night.
