Fresh From Florida 

Living in Florida is fantastic for my taste buds!  The hot weather makes my family crave fresh fruit and veggies, and Florida delivers during every season, with delicious fresh produce.

Florida Farmers make it so easy for everyone to eat fresh produce year around! Within a 5-mile radiance, there are over a dozen farmers markets held on various days of the week, Plus, my local grocery stores are always well stocked with products featuring the Fresh From Florida logo. Like these delicious bell peppers!

Fresh From Florida Bell Peppers, Squash, and Sweet Corn are Now In Season in Florida!

In Florida, something delicious is always in season, and right now our favorite veggies are!  My family snacks on Bell Peppers daily, and I love to cook with them because they are so versatile, so we have stocked up on Fresh From Florida Bell Peppers.

Squash and Sweet Corn are also in season in Florida, which makes me a very happy mommy because getting my kids to eat their vegetables is so much easier when I am serving up lots of their favorites.

Fresh From Florida Bell Pepper Tacos Recipe

My family loves Tacos!  We don’t just eat them on Tuesdays, we usually have them for dinner several times a week, so adding some twists to the average recipe is a must.  For years we have been swapping out the beef for shredded chicken, pork, or seafood, and now we have started changing what we use for a shell as well.  We gave Bell Peppers a try a few weeks ago when we heard they were in season, and the tacos were a huge hit at my dinner table!

Bell Pepper Chicken Taco Ingredients

• 6 Fresh From Florida Baby Bell Peppers
• Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
• A packet of Taco Seasoning
• Chopped Romain Lettuce
• Diced Tomatoes
• Shredded Cheese
• Sour Cream
• Optional: Ranch Dressing or Hot Sauce

Bell Pepper Taco Directions

Start with baking your chicken breast until it is fully cooked.  While the chicken is baking, mix the taco seasoning packet with the amount of water the packet calls for. 

Once the chicken is fully cooked remove the pan from the oven and pour the taco seasoning mix over the chicken.  Place the chicken back in the oven for 10 more minutes.

Next, remove the chicken from the oven, let it cool and then shred or chop it.

While the chicken is cooking prepare your other taco ingredients.  Dice up the tomato, chop the romaine lettuce, and prepare any additional veggies you may want to add to your taco like some sweet corn.

After the taco stuffing is ready, it is time to create the taco shell out of the bell peppers!  Cut each bell pepper around the stem and down the side of the pepper in a V-shape. The sidecut should be wide enough to fill the pepper but narrow enough that the sides keep the taco ingredients inside.

Finally, fill the bell peppers with the ingredients as you wish. My bell pepper tacos are filled with chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, and sour cream.

This recipe allows you to mix up the ingredients you love the most, my husband prefers to swap out the sour cream for ranch dressing and hot sauce.
