Homemade Doritos Taco Shells

 

I’ve already shared with you one of my dirty little secrets

{I love doritos}

To satisfy my love for this delicious spicy, cheesy snack, I made my own

and they were good.

 

Today I am sharing another dirty little secret with you.

My son LOVES taco bell.

He and his friends go EVERY Friday after school.

I love his growing independence, but his choice in food scares me just a bit.

His favorite on these Friday afternoon outings, the doritos locos taco.

Oh, doritos

I knew what I had to do…

I made my own

They may not keep Charlie from his taco bell outings once school starts in the fall, but at least for now, he’s pretty happy eating them at home.

Because my kids prefer flour over corn tortillas, I made homemade tortillas but you can certainly make the taco shells with store bought corn tortillas, just make sure to warm them for a few seconds in the microwave before baking to make them more flexible.
