Chipotle Salmon Tacos With Mango Salsa And Avocado Crema

I could eat tacos for breakfast, lunch, and dinner; actually, sometimes I do. There’s just something about wrapping the perfect combination of flavors and textures inside a warm tortilla that makes everything in the world feel right. And tacos are so versatile you can fill them with anything you like.

One of my favorite ways to eat tacos is to share them with friends as we watch football. We’re having some friends over to watch the Big Game and I decided to create something a little different using salmon.

Homegating is a big deal for us and watching the Big Game is a celebration I look forward to all year. I wanted to make sure these came out just right so I did a test run for this new recipe and man are these tacos amazing!

I started off with one of my favorite salmon recipes and added red cabbage and a simple mango salsa. It was still missing something to balance off the heat so I came up with the idea to combine it with my favorite dip: Dean’s Guacamole Dip drizzled on top of my tacos! Afer all, Dean’s Dips are so good there is no reason to limit the way you eat them and add them to other homegating recipes!

We always have Dean’s Dips at home; it’s delicious and a convenient solution for a delicious appetizer to enjoy while watching football games on TV. You can’t watch a football game without some chips and dip! We love Dean’s Dip dairy-fresh taste and it’s cool creamy taste and texture was perfect for adding that refreshing touch to the chipotle salmon tacos.

The combination of the heat from the chipotle rub, the sweetness of the mango and the coolness of the avocado crema made using Dean’s Guacamole Dip come together to create one of those recipes that will make your taste buds jump with joy.

If you love spicy foods leave the recipe as it is, if you like your food milder reduce the amount of chipotle and add a bit more mango salsa and avocado crema to your tacos to cool off some of that chipotle heat.

I always buy Dean’s Dips at my local Target and always have them on hand for dipping with friends while watching football games.

Right now you can get $0.75 off any one Dean’s Dip and because everything is better with bacon you can get $1 off one Dean’s Bacon Ranch or Cheddar Bacon Dip.
