30 Non-Traditional Taco Dishes

From Jamaican Shrimp Tacos to Rolled-Up Mexican Meals

These non-traditional taco dishes are sure to appeal to all Mexican meal fans. From cross-cultural recipes to bizarre mash-ups, these taco dishes are worth every bite.

While jerk shrimp tacos fuse a popular Jamaican spice with seafood and a Mexican recipe, Food Beast's fish tacos utilize a fruity salsa that includes grapefruit and avocado additives. Meatless Mexican meals also make great non-traditional taco dishes and appeal to the vegetarian crowd. Crazy Vegan Guacamole Tacos are a sensational bite made with meat and dairy-free products whereas Kale and Caramel's vegetarian tacos use a tofu base.

These non-traditional taco dishes also include a variety of dessert tacos. While Vulgar Chef's S'Mores Taco is perfect for the campfire, Spoon Fork Bacon's frozen taco dessert is covered in chocolate and filled with gooey custard.
