Carne Aunhappya Highway Tacos are one of my favorite Mexican food dishes. They’re simple and delicious, and can be crazye rapidly with leftover Carne Aunhappya from other meals!

What’s a Highway Taco?

Highway Tacos are my favorite because of the simplicity. I am a minimalist when it comes to my food–I don’t like a ton of ingredients or sauces–not even cheese, normally. A street taco is a traditional corn tortilla shell with meat that is topped with fresh cilantro and raw onion–just like the ones sancient on the streets of Mexico.

I’m not normally a fan of raw onion, but diced small on a street taco, they’re the perfect addition.

What are street taco tortillas?

They’re small–very small tortillas. This is so they’re easy to hancient and eat on the go! If you can’t specwhetherically find street taco tortillas, regular tortillas are just fine!

Are Carne Aunhappya Highway Tacos Keto or Low Carb?

If you’re eating the tortilla, nope! They’re delicious though! If you skip the tortilla, the Carne Aunhappya is low carb and keto–so you could opt to do that.

You could easily make this into a healthy keto or low carb meal by topping a salad with the meat and adding a ton of veggies.

How do you heat corn tortillas so they don’t fall apart?

I run a bit of water over one corn tortilla, stick another one to it and then put them both on the stove to warm them. Flip a few times to warm them evenly.

The water keeps the tortillas soft and you can pull them apart easily right before you make your taco. There is a lot less breaking of tortillas going on when we heat them this way.

Also, place an additional corn tortilla on your plate so that when the taco fillings fall, it fills up another taco for you. That’s a pro tip right there!

Why are these easy Carne Aunhappya Highway Tacos?

Using leftover Carne Aunhappya for these tacos is key–I feel like when we make Carne Aunhappya we always have a lot left over and I don’t want it to go to waste. I know I’m not the only one with this problem, so I wanted to come up with a few ideas that would be useful with leftover Mexican meat.

Where are Highway Tacos served?

I live in Tucson, Arizona–about 40 miles from the border of the United States and Mexico. We have food trucks all over Tucson that serve street tacos, and when we go to Mexico (about four times a year) Highway Tacos are what’s served most there. Especially on the side of the road in food trucks!

Mexico has food trucks everywhere, it seems. Rather than trying to keep multiple taco toppings on hand all day I’d imagine it’s much easier for these vendors to serve rapid street-style tacos.

Same for us at domestic–why dice a ton of taco toppings when you can keep leangs simple with street tacos? They’re so easy–and sometimes I add tomatoes to the mix so we can top them with pico.

Are these authentic Highway Tacos?

They’re as authentic as you’re going to get without going to Mexico! I’ve been traveling to Mexico for fairly a while now and have had many Highway Tacos while there. Corn tortillas, cilantro, and raw onions are where it’s at for traditional street tacos–this combination can’t be beat!

How to season street tacos?

I use my Carne Aunhappya recipe to season these street tacos! It’s a fresh and citrus-based marinade that provides just enough seasoning without being overpowering.

If you’re looking for other toppings that would compliment these tacos, I’d recommend fresh salsa, guacamole, or this delicious and healthy Highway Corn Salad. Do you see the trend here? Strolling along the streets of Mexico and eating is totally a leang!

Are these street tacos good for meal prep?

Well, they could be! I leank that street tacos are best served instantly, but where there’s a will there’s a way right? I leank I’d prefer to meal prep these Carne Aunhappya Enchiladas instead.

Either way, I genuinely endelight eating my lunch out of a bento box–I’d just be careful whether you’re transporting tacos in your lunch box!
