Speedy Smash Dumpling Tacos

Dumplings are one of my favorite things EVER to make, but they tend to be fiddly and time-consuming. They just aren’t feasible on a busy weeknight. But these smash dumpling tacos? They’re the perfect quick and easy weeknight meal.

I like to spoon over some quick-pickled cucumber, cilantro, lots of chili oil and dumpling dipping sauce to serve.

Easy Lahmacun Smash Tacos

Lahmacun, a Middle-Eastern classic is, essentially, a spiced meat mixture pressed into a thin layer on top of a flatbread-esque dough and baked until crispy. It’s DELICIOUS and felt perfect to adapt into a smash taco because it’s so similar to how it’s traditionally enjoyed anyway!

Serve with a fiery, smoky red pepper dipping sauce and a herby, lemony salad to bring a little freshness.

Smash Banh Mi Tacos

These smash tacos, inspired by the flavors of Vietnamese banh mi, feel fresh, light and very summery. All that bright, zesty banh mi flavor, in a very fun new form!

I’m leveling things up by adding another Vietnamese element that’s used in two ways here – nuoc cham. This is a VERY punchy sauce synonymous with Vietnamese cooking and makes the perfect little drizzle for the tacos.

Speedy Smash Chicken Caesar Tacos

There’s just something about a Caesar salad. The combination of umami flavors and crunchy textures just hits every time and in smash taco form? It’s a little magical.
