This past spring we started serving make your own tacos, and the boys LOVE them. Do you want a spoiler? These are your standard beef tacos in a hard shell, we just serve them in a unique way – click through for the big reveal!
… and the secret ingredient is a muffin tin!
With only two kiddos, it’s easy to make this work with one muffin tin. I place one kiddo’s ingredients along the length of one side, the other kiddo’s on the other side, and if we have any “extras” those go in a few spots in the middle row.
We keep the ingredients pretty basic:
- ground beef cooked with some garlic powder, cayenne, paprika, and salt
- refried beans
- diced tomatoes and/or salsa
- shredded lettuce
- grated cheddar cheese or crumbled queso fresco
The boys sit across from each other at their little table with the muffin tin in the middle within easy reach. They have empty shells on plates and are free to pile in their ingredients however they want.
Imagine being 4 and being in complete control of making your tacos. #bestdayever
