These street tacos are great with rice and beans or just by themselves. Add your favorite salsa weather it's green or red! Very tasty.

With Cathy's recipe, there's no need to search out a taco truck. These street tacos are just as good as anything you could buy. The seasoning really amps up the flavor of the beef. Lime juice adds a lovely, tangy citrus flavor. This is a simple taco recipe that will really hit the spot.
