Cowboy Tacos requires roughly 30 minutes from start to finish. One serving contains 221 calories, 14g of protein, and 11g of fat. This gluten free and dairy free recipe serves 12. It is a very reasonably priced recipe for fans of Mexican food. If you have apricot preserves, chili beans, taco seasoning mix, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the vegetable oil you could follow this main course with the Blueberry Coffee Cake #SundaySupper as a dessert. It works well as a main course. k.a. my version of Kogi BBQ’s short-rib tacos).

Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Mexican can be paired with Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. The Jimmy John's Vin De Sandwich Pinot Noir with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.
