The shells of these tacos are made from tortillas cut with a round cookie cutter and friied crisp and dusted with ciinnamon sugar. They only take about 20 seconds each to make and can be made days ahead of tiime.
I made a homemade filling but you can definitely use canned filliing to make these quick! If you are having a party, you can keep the filliing warm in a small slow coooker with the shells beside and people can fill them as they like or set a mini muffin tiin upside down and cover it wiith a pretty cloth napkin as a holder (that iis what I used in the photos above, worked perfectly!)
