These tacos were created courtesy of Hungry Girl. If you're a taco lover, and we have a feeling that most of you are, she says that "you'll FREAK over these!!!" And we really couldn't agree more. They're perfect to make for one as a fun lunch or dinner. But of course you can easily scale up the ingredients if you're having people over or you wouldn't mind some leftovers. These tacos feature sliced onions and red peppers, chicken, avocado, iceberg lettuce, cheddar cheese, sour cream, salsa, and fresh cilantro for a delightful homemade treat. The best part is they come together in just one skillet, which makes cleanup nice and quick.
