Ingredients

4 medium leeks, cleaned and sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
8 small corn or flour tortillas
1 cup goat cheese, crumbled
1 avocado, sliced (optional)
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Leeks: Clean the leeks thoroughly, removing any dirt, and slice them into thin rounds.
Sauté the Leeks: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks, salt, pepper, and thyme. Sauté for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are soft and slightly caramelized.
Warm the Tortillas: While the leeks are cooking, warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Place a generous spoonful of the sautéed leeks onto each tortilla. Top with crumbled goat cheese and any additional toppings like avocado or cilantro.
Serve: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos and serve immediately.
