When it comes to mealtime, “quick” and “easy” are a mom’s two favorite words. But when you throw in “tacos,” everyone gets excited! In our house, we love to have friends over and entertain. Taco cups are great for party appetizers or even dinner with your favorite sides. These perfect, crispy little cups are flavorful with every bite! And the best part is, they’re so easy to make – even the kiddos can help. Have a few extra? Throw them in the freezer and heat them up in the toaster oven to enjoy them later!
