Oven Tacos
*Get more RECIPES from Raining Hot Coupons here*
Oven Tacos are fantastic because once they are done, they are done! What I mean by that is all you have to do is grab one (add your toppings) and that’s it. Perfect for kids since they have a hard time making their own tacos.
Everything is mixed together including the beans. The tomato sauce gives it some moisture and extra flavor. Then the cheese….ooey gooey melted cheese! Doesn’t get much better than that.
Enjoy this quick and easy dinner….
