Okay, the other day I was spending way too much time on Pinterest. I came across a picture of these delicious looking tacos. When I clicked on the link, I saw they are called Oven Tacos. Apparently it is thing. A thing I never heard of until the other day. I looked at the recipe and it was so darn easy, I had to try them.
If you make tacos using regular store bought taco shells, then these are so easy to make. I loved them because it made the shells softer and they held together. The melted cheese makes the meat more yummy. Plus, the cheese does not fall out like it usually does when you just toss it on top of the taco.
I use Old El Paso shells because they are the stand and stuff kind.
Make your filling. I like using ground beef with sauteed tomatoes, onions and garlic. I also use my own spice mix: salt, garlic powder, onion powder, red chili flakes, pepper, cumin and coriander.
Stuff your tacos with the meat. Add lots of cheese on top. bake for 12 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
Get your toppings ready!
Cheesy and meaty goodness in a taco shell. Add toppings and eat!! YUMMO!
I would have never thought to make tacos in the oven. They look so good and I know my family would love them
ReplyDeleteThese do look easy and delicious. I want to make these Oven Tacos. Thanks so much for sharing such an incredible recipe!!

ReplyDeleteGeez, am I glad you spent all that time browsing Pinterest! I usually make burritos rather than tacos, but I think that's going to change. And I've just begun making my own seasoning mix, too. Anyway, thanks for this recipe.
ReplyDeleteI have heard of oven tacos before but have never tried them. These look really delicious.
ReplyDeleteThese look so delicious! From now on I am making my tacos this way. It also seems they would be less messy. I usually need a bib..lol
ReplyDeleteThis look so good. I love taco night at our house, we usually include it with game night, sometime we switch to pizza instead. Oven baked though I have never tried. I bet they are so good. And I love the stand along shells better.
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard of oven tacos either. I generally loathe store bought taco shells, but this might make them palatable. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI love tacos! These look convenient and yummy!
ReplyDeleteWe eat tacos quite often, but I have never put them in the oven. These look delicious. Thanks for the suggestion!

I usually make my own tortillas and taco shells. Like the 'flat bottom'... makes it easier both in the oven and for serving. Great idea using the oven!
ReplyDeleteI tried this one and the whole family really liked them.
