Can you sense summer calling? I can feel the heat hitting my skin already! Warm evenings under the stars with my family after a yummy fresh dinner that screams, “Summer is just a day away” is my dream lately. This time of year inspires a menu that brings the freshness of citrus and cilantro with the comfort of seasoned meats! These Lime Chicken Tacos will quench your inner summer voice while being easy on time. Let’s dig in!

Tacos is a family favorite in my house! As a Dietitian, I love that they offer a simple balanced meal in minutes.
