I love the flavors of Mexican food---spicy slow-cooked meats, grilled seafood, chiles, chocolate, and avocados to name a few.
Luckily, with a few simple swaps for chips and tortillas, or substituting dairy, you can make your favorites gluten and dairy free. You can even sneak in some favorite ingredients like sweet potatoes, cauliflower rice, and coconut or almond flour as substitutions.
And there are plenty of Mexican recipe ingredients to build on like ground beef, chicken, cilantro, lime, jalapenos, and of course avocados!
