You can customize the flavors in these tacos to your favorites. However, I am combining the steak house classic duo, steak and blue cheese, into a fun and updated take on taco night.

  • Leftover steak – Flank steak, skirt steak, NY strip, and sirloin are just some of the options for these tacos.
  • Tortillas – Either corn tortillas or flour tortillas will work. Use your favorite or use a combination so your family and friends can have fun making it their own.
  • Blue cheese – The tang of the blue cheese balances out the richness of the steak.
  • Sour cream
  • Toppings – Fresh cilantro, sliced peppery radishes, and a bright squeeze of lime are the ideal accents for these tacos.
  • Fresh Summer Cherry Salsa – This tart and fruity salsa makes these tacos come alive with the flavors of summer.
