Homemade Tacos

Well I don't make the shells from scratch but these are SO good! Something about mixing the beans and the meat together - one it stretches the meat even farther -- because everyone is getting beans and it makes everything easy to spread.

I will be using some hamburger meat that I browned and froze -- making this dinner even easier!
