Crunchy Potato Tacos
A vegetarian taco that is completely amazing. Who knew fried crispy potato inside a fried crispy taco could be so easy and yet so good? (Most people!)
When you put carbs with carbs there isn't a lot that can go wrong really. I love a good taco, and this is one of those. Definitely. Watch the end of the video for other suggestions on fillings instead of potatoes if that idea offends you. SO many options, so little time. I am pretty sure the vegetarians in the world would love this one.
Enjoy!
We have LOADS of delicious taco options on here...time to taco look; (sorry)
