Taco Tuesday for a cause with Red Pepper Taqueria

Published January 14, 2020 2:09 PM EST

We love Taco Tuesday on Good Day Atlanta but this one can help our friends in Australia, who are dealing with devastating brushfires. 

We're chowing down for a good cause this morning with Chef Mimmo Alboumeh.  Red Pepper Taqueria will be donating 100% of shrimp taco donations to the Australian Red Cross.   For more information on today's shrimp taco recipe see below. For more on Red Pepper Taqueria click here.
