How to cook deliciously - Walking Tacos

1. Stage

Cook the beef and beans topping: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, half of the chopped onions, and salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and the beef is cooked through, about 5 minutes. You can scoop out the fat if you'd like. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the pinto beans, taco seasoning, and salsa and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat.

2. Stage

Assemble walking tacos: Use scissors to cut either the top off or cut down the center front of each chip bag. To assemble each bag: Spoon about 1/2 cup beef on the chips, and top with 1/4 cup lettuce, 1/4 cup cheese, 2 tablespoons tomato, 1 tablespoon chopped onions, 1 tablespoon cilantro, and 1 tablespoon sour cream. Garnish with pickled jalapeños and hot sauce. Serve immediately. The chips will get soggy if assembled ahead of time. Love the recipe? Leave us stars and a comment below!
