These tacos were a huge hit! We love tacos and these were a nice change from the normal hamburger ones. I omitted the pepper, used a shredded rotisserie chicken Bush's chipotle beans and there were no leftovers. Even my picky eater kids ate several.

I thought this was pretty good. I started with fresh chicken and bacon so it took longer than 20 minutes. When I make this again I will replace the baked beans with left over chili. I think that will give it more of a tex mex meal.

These tacos were amazing! My kids loved them, and they are very picky eaters. They picked the bell pepper out, but asked me to make them again tomorrow! My husband isn't home yet to try them, but I'm sure he will love them too.
