I don’t mind the food from Taco Bell. Sure, it’s not amazing but I don’t find it terrible either. Whenever I am looking for a quick bite to eat, the tacos from Taco Bell are always a good option. This is a copycat recipe for Taco Bell tacos. This recipe is very easy and basically, you just need to mix together different seasoning ingredients. The seasoning uses ingredients such as chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, and masa corn flour. I really like the flavor that the beef bouillon adds to these tacos. The tacos are topped with lettuce and cheddar cheese. You can add additional ingredients such as diced tomato and sour cream as well. Enjoy.

Refresh the taco shells by placing them into a baking dish. Place the baking dish into the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes. Allow the shells to cool off a little bit before assembling the tacos. - To assemble the tacos—add a couple of tablespoons of the taco meat to the bottom of the tacos shells.
