Prepare Your Protein
Choose your protein option (grilled chicken, ground beef, or black beans). If using grilled chicken, slice it into strips. For ground beef, cook in a skillet over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. If using black beans, drain and rinse them before heating in a small pot over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

Assemble the Tacos
On each warm tortilla, add a portion of your prepared protein (approximately 66 grams per taco). Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa. Add avocado slices and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for added flavor.
