    We talked to three cooks, including Marcela Valladolid, host of Mexican Made Easy on the Food Network and author of Mexican Made Easy: Everyday Ingredients, Extraordinary Flavor, to get their tips on going loco with your tacos.




    "You don't need to track down hard-to-find ingredients to make great tacos. Start with a protein, then layer on the flavor with cheese or fresh produce. Then, perfect drink pairing: tacos and micheladas! This refreshing Mexican drink is an easy match for any of my tacos. Just add some fresh lime juice to your favorite beer and serve over ice."-Marcela Valladolid



    "Tacos are an amazing way to use up leftovers! Main dishes, sides, and even jarred condiments you happen to have in the fridge can inspire really fun combos."-Caryn Ross, food blogger at fatandsassymama.com and a winner of the Real Women of Philadelphia cooking competition



    "I love making tacos the way they do in Mexico, with authentic soft corn tortillas. Buy the ones sold in the international aisle-they're cheaper and taste fresher to me!"-Diana Sturgis, Every Day test kitchen director

Nothing else--save for maybe apples and peanut butter in a pinch--could have made for as sweet an
