Walking Tacos
Ingredients
- 3 pounds ground beef
- 2 1-ounce packets taco seasoning
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 20 single-serve bags corn chips such as Fritos
- 4 cups shredded lettuce
- 3 cups shredded cheddar
- 2 cups diced tomato
- 2 cups sour cream
- 2 cups salsa
- 1 4-ounce jar sliced jalapenos
Instructions
- Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking it into crumbles, until no pink remains.
- Drain the excess fat, then stir in the taco seasoning and water.
- Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened enough to cling to the meat rather than pool in the pan.
- Set out the bags of corn chips and have each guest lightly crush the chips inside the unopened bag, then slit it open along one side.
- Spoon the seasoned beef directly into each bag over the chips.
- Top with lettuce, cheese, tomato, sour cream, salsa and jalapenos as desired.
- Hand over a fork and let everyone eat straight from the bag, no plate required.
Good to Know
Keep the beef warm in a slow cooker on the lowest setting so it is ready whenever someone grabs a bag, rather than reheating one batch at a time.
