Smoky Potato and Greens Tacos
This quick meatless Monday dish is bursting with flavor. Cooked greens, crispy potatoes, radishes, cilantro, hot sauce, and queso fresco cheese are piled in lightly charred corn tortillas will satisfy any taco lover. Make sure that the potatoes are dry after boiling and draining the water; this ensures that they become crispy when added to the skillet.
