These tacos are my Grandma’s recipe and only complete alongside her enchiladas but they are seriously good on their own too. For me, this is the ultimate comfort food that brings back memories of cozy family dinners that are truly magical. This is the most common dinner my Grandma would make for us and they are oh so delicious. She would make a big batch of the fried taco shells with the meat in the them and then would put all the toppings out for everyone to build their own. I could eat these all day long…..Mmmmmmmmm
1 Pound Hamburger
⅓ Pound Chorizo (I use soy chorizo from Trader Joes)
Grated Cheddar Cheese
Grated Jack Cheese
Diced Tomatoes
Shredded Lettuce
Green Onions
Black Olives
Sour Cream
Corn Tortillas
Canola Oil
Brown hamburger and chorizo in pan. Drain any fat. Taste meat to see if its seasoned enough. If not, you can add a little packages taco seasoning. Set aside.
Fry corn tortillas in a pan with canola oil filled up enough to cover the tortillas. Fold over the tortilla and start on one side and then once fried turn it over. Drain on paper towels.
For the toppings make sure to set out the rest of the ingredients and let your guests build their own. Enjoy!
these look amazing. I have to to make them. My hubby loves both tacos and chorizo, so to have a taco that combines them both is incrediable. Thank you for this.
Anna, can you get her enchilada recipes, too? I need them!
That is coming up! I’ll be making them and taking pictures soon so stay tuned… 🙂 xoxo

Thanks so much for the invite – what an honor! I’m so excited to be apart of this select food community. 🙂
Mmm I love chorizo!!!
Yum, chorizo! I love to season my taco meat with the Fajita and Taco Spice from World Spice Merchants… They’re an awesome little shop in Seattle. I love going in there when I’m there, but their mail order is great and cheap and fast. Word of warning, once you use their super fresh spices, nothing else will ever do again! http://www.worldspice.com/blends/fajita-taco-spice
Thanks for that recommendation! I’ll have to order some spices soon… 😉
