Spooky Eyeball Tacos (Johnny #5 Tacos) image

These are a sight to see. I originally made them after finding the recipe last year for Halloween and have since changed the recipe around to make them more eater-friendly. The smiles you will receive are priceless! Try to find the widest taco shells possible if you are not making your own. We call them "Johnny 5 Tacos" as they resemble the robot from the movie Short Circuit more than they seem spooky. Kids also love to help prepared these!

Time 55m

Yield 2 tacos per person, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
12 taco shells
3/4 cup salsa
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tomatoes, small cubes
1 small head lettuce, sliced into small confetti squares
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can large black olives, sliced
1 cup cheese, Shredded & Long (cheddar is good, but a Mexican blend would be good too)

Steps:

  • MIX meat and seasoning mix. Shape half of the mixture into 24 (1-inch) balls; place in 15x10x1-inch baking pan and bake at 350 F for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Brown the remaining seasoned ground beef and add salsa.
  • Fill each taco shell with a thin layer of ground beef, sour cream, lettuce, and tomatoes.
  • Position 2 meatballs inside the taco shell and add a dollop of sour cream to each. Garnish with olives to make "eyeballs." Spread the cheese out along to the top for stringy hair.
