Easy Walking Tacos
Walking tacos for a crowd with seasoned ground beef, individual Doritos bags, lettuce, sour cream, cheddar, and salsa.
Ingredients
- 5 pounds ground beef
- Taco seasoning for 5 pounds ground beef
- 40 individual 1-ounce bags Doritos
- 2 small bags shredded lettuce
- 2 16- ounce containers sour cream
- 6 cups mild shredded cheddar cheese
- Salsa for serving
Instructions
- Brown ground beef in batches, breaking it into small crumbles.
- Drain fat well. Add taco seasoning and water according to packet directions, then simmer until liquid is absorbed.
- Transfer cooked taco meat to slow cookers set to Low or Warm.
- Set out Doritos bags, lettuce, sour cream, cheese, salsa, and any extra toppings buffet-style.
- To serve, lightly crush chips in the bag, tear open the top, and add taco meat and toppings.
- Serve immediately while the meat is warm and the chips are crunchy.
Notes
Drain the beef well so the walking tacos are not greasy. Keep taco meat warm in a slow cooker for 2 to 3 hours for parties. Taco meat can be made up to 2 days ahead and reheated with a splash of water or broth if needed. Set up two topping lines for large groups so guests move through faster.
