Notes
Nutrition information was calculated for 1 taco. Adding optional toppings will change these values.
Toasting Tortillas - Place a dry skillet over MEDIUM heat. When hot, add a tortilla and toast it briefly on each side. Transfer toasted tortillas to a cloth tortilla warmer and they will stay warm for up to an hour. Alternately, wrap them in foil and place in a 200 degree F oven until ready to serve.
