Notes
- This recipe makes about 2-3 tacos/person: If you add plenty of toppings.
- I recommend doubling the recipe: If you’re feeding very hungry folks.
- To warm flour tortillas all at once: Wrap them in foil and place in a 375F oven while you’re prepping everything.
- I warm corn tortillas: In a skillet or directly on the flame of my gas stove (very carefully!).
- Nutrition for this recipe: Is just for the taco meat as toppings and the size/brand/ingredients of tortillas vary.
