Tacos

Tacos are totally safe while breastfeeding! Whether it's chicken, beef, fish, or vegetarian, tacos are a satisfying and breastfeeding-friendly meal.

Tacos are made with a tortilla, protein, and toppings — all breastfeeding-safe. Fish tacos made with low-mercury fish like cod or tilapia are a particularly good choice. Toppings like salsa, guacamole, cheese, and sour cream are all fine. The spice won't bother your baby through breast milk.
