Here’s a twist on your typical taco for Taco Tuesday. Ortega Fiesta Flats are just perfect for making individual taco salads. They’re just the right size to hold everything you need. This recipe is super easy for weeknights and makes dinnertime just a little more fun. Be sure to put out lots of toppings so everyone can make their own and make it just the way they like it. We like to add sliced black olives, queso fresco and avocado to ours!
Be sure to heat the Fiesta Flats before serving so they don’t fall apart when you bite into them! To keep this simple there are plenty of options at the supermarket to keep prep time to a minimum. Purchase items like pre shredded lettuce or cabbage, tiny grape tomatoes, canned corn or olives, pre shredded cheese. You can even find good quality prepared guac if you don’t want to slice avocados.
