At SHREDDED TACOS, we offer a unique and special blend of Mexican and Italian flavors to create crave inducing tacos that have quickly become the local favorite of those living in the San Fernando Valley, Granada Hills and beyond. If there's one ingredient that is absolutely essential to Mexican & Italian cuisines, it's tomatoes. These red-orange fruits form the foundations of everything that makes these types of food delicious, and they play a big role in our Tacos and Salsa. We all know that tomatoes are good for us. But did you know they deliver several unexpected benefits that make us love them even more? In our next two blogs, we're going to share about the healthy benefits that come from some key ingredients that make our tacos and salsa taste so good, and be good for you. Your skin Tomatoes contain beta-carotene and lycopene. Both of these protect your skin from the sun and make it less vulnerable to UV light damage. UV light causes wrinkles and fine lines, so dig into salsa and enjoy the tomatoes atop SHREDDED TACOS to help keep your skin protected. Your blood sugar Tomatoes are packed with chromium, which plays a major role in keeping your blood sugar balanced. The more tomatoes, the better! Your vision The vitamin A in tomatoes improves your vision and reduces night blindness. It also strengthens your eyes against macular degeneration, an eye condition that cannot be reversed once it gets started. Jean's Famous Salsa and our gourmet shredded beef & chicken tacos are packed with benefits for your tastebuds AND your body. Our Salsa is made fresh daily, allowing our ingredients to pack the healthiest punch. In fact, there's so many positives, we think our tacos and salsa should count as health food (at least once a week)! We are proud to be one of the best local favorite Mexican restaurants that cater in the San Fernando Valley, Granada Hills and the surrounding area.
