sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Start by making the cilantro lime sauce: combine mayo, sour cream, lime, cilantro, jalapeno, salt, pepper, and garlic in a food processor and blend.

Place the blended sauce in the fridge for about 30 minutes.

For the slaw, take shredded cabbage and drizzle the cilantro lime sauce over it, mixing until combined. Place in the fridge.

Prepare the tortillas: toast half and half tortillas in a skillet with a little vegetable oil, toasting one side and placing them on a paper towel to drain. Use about five tortillas.

In a skillet, sauté onions with salt and pepper until softened.

Add seasoned diced chicken thighs to the skillet with the onions and mix.

Season the chicken again with onion powder, cumin, paprika, and chili powder to taste.

Build the tacos by adding cilantro lime slaw to each tortilla, followed by the taco meat.

Optionally, add avocado slices to each taco.

Top with queso quesadilla cheese, microwaving briefly to melt the cheese.

Finish by drizzling with cilantro lime sauce, garnishing with cilantro and lime.
