DEE'S AWESOME TACOS

In the 70's, Ortega published a recipe for taco filling with their ads. I made them for years according to their recipe(sort of). I lost the recipe and have tweaked it over the years to this result. I have done searches and can't find the recipe. I even wrote to Ortega and nothing. These are even better than the original recipe in my opinion. I hope u try them and love then as much as we do.

Steps:

  • Brown meat in large skillet. Drain off fat. Add tomatoes, sauce, water, and seasionings. Bring to boil and reduce heat to simmer. Cook covered for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook until the liquid is absorbed and meat is tender, about another 20 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings to your taste.
  • Fry tortillas in canola oil until desired crispness. Blot on paper towels and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Fill with taco filling and garnish as desired. We like ours as my picture shows...with shreaded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shreaded cheddar cheese, pico de gallo, sliced avacado and sour cream, more parmesan cheese, and a squeeze of fresh lime. YUMMMM
  • An alternative to frying the tortillas: place several tortillas between damp paper towels in the microwave for 20 seconds or until soft and pliable. Stack 2 together and build your taco(sometimes one cracks and leaks). If I have leftover taco filling, I make taco salad or taco omlettes.

Dee's Roast Pork for Tacos image

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Place the roast on top of a large piece of aluminum foil. In a small bowl, stir together the green chiles, chili powder, oregano, taco seasoning and garlic. Rub onto the roast. Wrap foil around the roast so that it is completely covered, using additional aluminum foil if necessary. Place on top of a roasting rack in a baking dish, or place a cookie sheet on an oven rack below to catch any leaks.
  • Roast the meat for 3 1/2 to 4 hours in the preheated oven, until falling apart. Cook to at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from the oven, and shred into small pieces using two forks. Season with salt to taste.

HOMEMADE TACOS: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE | TASTE OF HOME

From tasteofhome.com
Author Lauren Pahmeier
Published Apr 8, 2022
  • Start with your taco shells. Securing the perfect taco shell is the first step towards making an incredible taco. For many taco nights, it’s as easy as buying a bag of soft corn or flour tortillas (or hard shells, if you want to add some crunch), since most taco fillings pair nicely with either—though if your filling is particularly heavy, sturdier flour tortillas are the wisest choice.
  • Gather your spices and seasonings. The spices that you need for your taco filling depend entirely on the recipe you choose to make—but some typical spices you’ll see are cumin, garlic, oregano, chili powder and cayenne.
  • Pick your filling. When it comes to taco fillings, the sky is the limit. Beef, pork, chicken, fish, shrimp, tofu, jackfruit and vegetables of all kinds can add up to the perfect taco—it just depends on what you’re in the mood for.
  • Add toppings. Of course, your taco toppings will depend on the meat or vegetable filling you choose, but there are plenty of options that pair well with several types of tacos.
  • Serve with sides. What would taco night be without chips and dip? Our Test Kitchen tested several brands and found the best tortilla chips for dips and salsas.
