Vegetarian Farro Soft Tacos

Hey everyone!! We’re on Spring Break and I’m in Dallas with the girls visiting my parents. Do you remember Spring Break as a kid or a teenager? I think I just remember lounging around the house, sleeping in late and hanging out with friends.

Since my parents live in Texas, we try to visit as much as possible so the girls can see their grandparents. Anyway, should be a really fun week!!

Let’s get to these tacos!

You guys . . these tacos are filled with some of my favorite things: swiss chard, asparagus (which I can’t get enough of these days), black beans, farro and more!

And to make these tacos even better, I made an avocado crema . . with a secret ingredient!!!

I love the avocado crema on these tacos!! Adds such a fresh and creamy taste!!! I LOVED these tacos!

This is seriously the easiest meal to throw together and so delicious! You can even make the avocado crema ahead of time and store it in your fridge. And if you have leftover filling, just eat the filling by itself for lunch! I wish I doubled the recipe so I could eat more of the farro filling!
