Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium taco seasoning store-bought or homemade
  • 6 individual bags of chips Doritos or Fritos
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup canned black beans drained
  • ½ cup diced tomatoes

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large skillet, brown the beef, crumbling it as you cook. Drain the fat, then return to the heat.
  2. Add the taco seasoning and ¼ cup of water and cook until the seasoning is consistent throughout.
  3. Assemble the walking tacos with the beef and toppings!

Notes

  • Feel free to use any of your favorite taco toppings, like sour cream, salsa, guacamole, avocado, sliced olives, nacho cheese, etc!
  • This recipe is best assembled when ready to eat. If you’d like to prep ahead, cook the beef ahead, then keep all ingredients separate until ready to assemble.
  • This is really fun party food, especially for kids! It’s also great for camping and tailgating!
  • We used 1 oz bags of chips to make our six small walking tacos, which are fairly small and don’t fill all adults up. For larger walking tacos, use 4 of these 2 oz bags of Fritos for this recipe.
