About
Tacos and potatoes, the marriage we didn't know we needed or wanted until we had it! And once we had Taco Taters for the first time, trust us, we wanted it again and again! Deliciously savory and spicy taco meat, with melty cheese and zesty salsa, bubbles underneath a crispy potato nugget crust and then topped with tangy olives and creamy sour cream and even more cheese... oh yes, this is the good stuff! A simple bake that packs in the flavors, this Taco Taters is truly terrific!
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 (15.25-ounce) can corn, drained
