QUICK "TACO" DINNER



Quick

This is not a normal taco, but we like it and have used it for years. When my children were little they used to love to "build" their own plate by layering the ingedients as shown in the directions here. Be careful though - its real easy to end up with way more on your plate than you can eat - especially if you're hungry! I'm guessing on the size of the Frito bag, but it doesn't really matter as long as you have enough for your meal. It's fresh, it's crunchy, it's easier to eat than regular tacos, and its a real favorite in our family. Try adding any other taco-type ingredients according to what you like. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right tortillas: Corn or flour tortillas can be used, but corn tortillas are more traditional. Look for tortillas that are fresh and pliable, and avoid any that are cracked or dry.
  • Season your meat: The taco meat is the star of the show, so make sure it's well-seasoned. A simple combination of chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder is a good place to start, but you can also add other spices like paprika, oregano, or cayenne pepper to taste.
  • Use fresh toppings: The toppings are what really make tacos special, so use the freshest ingredients you can find. Crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and creamy avocado are all great choices. You can also add other toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, or salsa.
  • Don't overstuff your tacos: It's tempting to pile on all the toppings, but it's important to not overstuff your tacos. Otherwise, they'll be difficult to eat and the flavors will get lost.
  • Serve immediately: Tacos are best served immediately, while the tortillas are still warm and the toppings are fresh. If you're making tacos ahead of time, store the components separately and assemble them just before serving.

Conclusion:

Tacos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or for a fun and festive party food. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a taco recipe that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give tacos a try!
