Tacos in a bag or walking tacos from Salt Hank: A Five Napkin Situation (page 106) by Henry Laporte

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This recipe calls for the book's "Cheese sauce (queso)."

    Made as-is, but added black beans to my meat mixture, and made guacamole. You literally can't go wrong with this recipe, and you'll stuff yourself silly because you just want to keep eating it.

    It's a nice spice blend for the meat, much better than any packet. I use this as a base for regular tacos and enchiladas. Note: The amount of onion powder has to be a mistake. I use 1 teaspoon. Not 2 tablespoons as the recipe calls for. Also start with 1 ½ cups of broth, 2 can take a while to reduce.
