Canned salmon tacos are surprisingly delicious, super easy to assemble, and made of mostly pantry staples. There’s many a night we come home and have no idea what’s going to be for dinner and that’s when I turned to my pantry and canned goods. Wild, canned beans are my go-to. It’s nice to switch it up sometimes and these canned salmon tacos don’t disappoint.
