    It’s good for you

  2. AfroLady352 says:

    Is that flour tortilla or corn?

  3. loves2cook74 says:

    I use the flour tortillas. The ones int he video are homemade, but I have
    also used the store bought 8 or 10 inch tortillas.

  4. krazieamc says:

    Which is why flour tortillas are better for taco salad shells, they’ll get
    the bubbles and have just thr right mix of soft and crisp. 🙂

  5. Bruce Kersman says:

    That was pretty smart; if I’d seen you video first, I could have saved
    money on the taco making tins…Oh well, still pretty ingenius..

    I have used the “baking” method. While it does create a nicely shaped bowl
    that is indeed healthier, it does not taste the same. The fried bowl will
    give you the more restaurant style flavor. The “baked” bowl seemed to me
    to have a chewier texture. As far as having more bowl shape, I have only
    had problems getting a good bowl shape when I tried to use too small of
    tortillas for my bowl. The tortilla needs to be able to fit around the bowl.

    Thanks for the tutorial, it is a great one. The problem with the health
    nuts is they do not seem to understand that sometimes you just want to eat
    a GOOD MEAL.The baked one might as well be a plastic bowl it is not worth
    eating. Just because you are a health nut, does not mean that there is not
    mean that you should make negative comments when a recipe focuses on TASTE.
    It took me a LONG TIME to find this recipie because all that is out there
    is healthy tasteless ones. Thanks for posting!

    maybe they aren’t going for healthy.

    Sweet!

    You done good! that’s what i was wanting to know, how to make a crunchy
    taco bowl! Those baked ones lack real taste, guess you need lots of oil for
    flavor!

    have shown me how to do that delicious TACO FLOWER SHELL.
