Best Gluten-Free Mexican Food Recipes for Cinco de Mayo
Tacos: As long as you use hard or soft corn tortillas, you can enjoy tacos. You’ll have to avoid fillings like fried fish or those made with marinades or spice mixes that use gluten-containing ingredients like beer or flour. But if you make your own—like the Chili Lime Steak Bites in this roundup—you can set up a taco bar with toppings like cheese, sour cream, lettuce and guacamole.Nachos: Buy a brand of gluten-free tortilla chips (like Siete Grain-Free Tortilla Chips) and you can use those same taco fillings and toppings to make nachos. Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken is a great option.Rice bowls: Whether you use regular rice or keep it low carb with cauliflower rice, you can top it with one of these low-carb chicken skillet dinner recipes, plus all your favorite fixin’s.Side dishes: Rice, beans, corn, and of course dips like salsa and guac are all gluten free.Skinny Margaritas: Since tequila is made from the agave plant, as long as the brand doesn’t add any flavorings or other sneaky gluten ingredients, it’s gluten free. That means it’s margarita time!Mexican Breakfast: A proper Cinco de Mayo starts with breakfast! Try the Breakfast Tostada Stacks or Salsa Egg Tacos with Mexican Pepper Jack Baked Cauliflower Tots.
If all of that isn’t enough, you can stuff sweet potatoes, kick up your shrimp cocktail, bring the Tex-Mex to breakfast and more! Get all of these recipes by clicking “Launch Gallery” above. CLICK HERE TO PIN THIS COLLECTION
