        This receipe was so good. I did change it up. I thought it may be a little juicy with all the salsa, so I used a fajita seasoning packet. It was just right. I also used mango flavored salsa and I loved it as well as my husband. I also have the big muffin muffin tins and tried the 6 inch soft tacos with the large tin and it was just the right size. I didn't have to cut anything. Thank you for My new favorite.

        Great recipe! Huge hit with the family for dinner. I used corn tortillas in stead flower. You need to microwave the corn tortillas for 20 seconds in stead of 15. If tortillas tear use left over tortilla to patch hole. Bake time stays the same. When you take them out they look very greasy surprisingly they have less grease then regular tacos.
