The Best Tacos!

Since this is my first official post on my recipe blog, it is only appropriate that I start out with my famous tacos (passed down from my mom). These tacos have always been my favorite and every time I make them, they are a hit! People always ask what the secret is to make these and the answer is HOMEMADE taco shells and La Victoria's green taco sauce, mmm!

















Ingredients:






ground beef or ground turkey (a little more healthy and just as good)



Lawry's Taco Seasoning packet



White corn tortillas



sour cream



tomatoes



shredded cheese



lettuce (if you want)



La Victoria's Green Taco Sauce (you can get this in mild if you don't like spicy)






Directions:






Brown the meat and cook according to the directions on the seasoning packet (very easy). Set aside and make taco shells. To make the taco shells, heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. With tongs, place tortilla into hot oil. With the tongs hold the tortilla into a taco shape and fry one side at a time until golden brown and crisp. You can also make homemade tortilla chips this way too by cutting the tortillas into triangles then frying. I'm telling you it makes all the difference in the world! Place the tortillas onto a plate lined with paper towels to soak up the extra oil, let cool and then fill your taco to your liking!
