Some nights you just want a classic taco with that resounding crunch of the shell. This recipe is simple and can be made even simpler if you have Fody or Smoke N Sanity’s Taco Seasoning.
You will also need Freefod’s Onion Replacer or Smoke N Sanity’s Essence of Onion Salt. I have tried all four products mentioned and all of them are great.
