Original Ortega® Taco Recipe

By: Ortega®

"Make tonight Taco Night! Our original taco recipe is easy to prepare and fun for the whole family. Set out a variety of toppings in small bowls, and let the creations begin. In addition to the topping suggestions listed in the recipe, you can also serve guacamole, sour cream, ripe black olives, chopped onion, sliced radishes and chopped bell pepper. On Taco Night, the only limit is your imagination."
