Easy Walking Tacos
These fun individual bags of seasoned taco meat and fresh toppings are the perfect crowd pleasing meal for busy nights.
recipesbynani.comWalking tacos are a favorite in our house because they are so easy to customize. You get all the crunch and flavor of a traditional taco right inside a single serving bag of chips, which means there are barely any dishes to clean up afterward.
My best advice is to set everything out in bowls so everyone can build their own bag just the way they like it. It makes dinner feel like a party even on a regular Tuesday evening.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup water
- 6 individual size bags of corn chips like Fritos
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 diced tomato
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until it is fully cooked through.
- 2
Drain the extra grease from the pan.
- 3
Stir in the taco seasoning and the water according to the packet directions, then let it simmer for about five minutes until the sauce thickens.
- 4
Open each bag of chips carefully.
- 5
Spoon a portion of the warm taco meat into each chip bag.
- 6
Top the meat with shredded cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, a dollop of sour cream, and some green onions.

Serve immediately with a plastic fork and enjoy your meal right out of the bag.
💡 Tips
These are best served right away while the meat is warm and the chips are crunchy. If you have extra meat, you can store it in the fridge for up to three days and reheat it for another round of tacos later in the week.
