Normally when we make a new recipe, we make sure that all of the instructions are right here in the recipe or somewhere on our site so you don’t have to use multiple sources to make the meal.  We get inspiration from other recipes on the web sometimes, but then we adapt unhealthy recipes or change it up to be our own recipe.  However, when I tested this recipe, I tried a whole wheat naan recipe from frugalnutrition.com and it came out so good that I didn’t want to adapt it or make my own.  So, make sure you grab this recipe for the naan bread I used as taco shells for these Curry Chicken Tacos.

This is actually the second installment in a series of recipes I’m calling “Taco Fuseday”, where I take other dishes and cuisines and make them into tacos.  The first one I did was this Meatloaf Tacos recipe.  This one, obviously, is taking Indian curry and turning it into tacos by using naan bread as the shell and filling it with rice and chicken curry.  The result was tasty and incredible.  You know you dip your naan bread in the curry anyway, so why not make a taco?  Because…tacos!

We’ll keep updating our Taco Fuseday collection, so check here for more.
