Taco Board Tips

Prepare all of your fresh ingredients as close to serving time as possible to ensure the best presentation and freshness.
Feel free to use your favorite wooden board. If you don’t have a wooden or cutting board available you could also use a large baking sheet or tray for your taco board.
While you’re preparing the toppings, make sure your taco filling is kept warm in a pan. You can also make it ahead of time and warm it up in a skillet or in the microwave when ready.

Variations

Not vegetarian? Make the taco filling out of your favorite ground meat such as beef, chicken, turkey, or pork.
For an extra bit of sweetness, drizzle some honey on top of the mango salsa.
Instead of Cotija, you may use Oaxaca, Colby, Jack, Cheddar, Feta, Queso Fresco, or other flavorful cheese you have on hand.
Instead of red cabbage, feel free to use white cabbage or a bag of pre-shredded coleslaw mix.
Try serving the tacos with a side of refried beans, black beans, pinto beans, or lentils for a filling meal.

Taco Board Storage and Freezing

Storing: This taco board is best served immediately, but all of the items on the board can be placed in separate air-tight containers and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Freezing: Since all of the ingredients have varying shapes and textures, freezing is not recommended as most of the ingredients will lose their structure when frozen, then thawed.
