Tacos are one of those dinners that tend to be easy if you don’t get too fancy. The One Skillet Mini Taco Boats is a great taco recipe that will also introduce you to a better way to serve tacos. The recipe is  the standard taco recipe using Old El Paso Taco Seasoning and other Old El Paso products but is presented in a much better and less messy method.
