What To Serve With Tacos?
1. Chips and Dip
First up for what to serve with tacos is chips and dip! A classic Mexican snack, and a perfect little accompaniment to tacos on the table. Our Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips are perfect dunked into some super smokey Chipotle Salsa, zingy and fresh Tomatillo Salsa, or fruity and hot Mango Salsa.

3. Guacamole
You could spoon this on top of your tacos to upgrade them slightly, or have it on the side with some Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips for dunking. Above all, our Guacamole recipe is simply the best around due to the couple of spoonfuls of our Tomatillo Salsa stirred into it!
4. Mexican Chipotle Rice
An authentic Mexican side dish that goes with every Mexican main. Our Mexican Chipotle Rice is a simple recipe filled with carrots, peas and coriander, and uses our Chipotle Paste to add the sublime heat and smoky flavour. In short, its a winner!
