My New Favorite Thing for Taco Night

Ryan and I usually make tacos a couple times a month. Ryan recently picked these taco salad bowls up at the store, and they are my new favorite thing for taco night. You start by putting together these cardboard contraptions that are like upside-down bowls...it's very fast and easy.

You drape the shells over the cardboard contraptions...

Then stick 'em in the oven for about 6 minutes.

Meanwhile...Start preparing a few things to put IN the bowl. I usually chop some lettuce and tomato.

Brown some hamburger...if you have taco seasoning, great, but we usually just use fresh onion and garlic and lots of chili powder.

When you pull the shells out of the oven, they look like this...all golden and delicious. Take them off the cardboard molds and flip them over to fill.

Throw in your lettuce, tomato, meat, beans (black or pinto), cheese, salsa, and anything else you can come up with...and eat!
