Navajo Tacos

We love tacos at our house.  Sometimes, though, I like to switch it up and make them on scones.  It's no more difficult than regular old tacos, but it's fun and new and soooooo yummy!

You need:

1 lb. ground beef
1 packet taco seasoning
12 frozen Rhodes rolls (double recipe if you need more)
Oil for frying scones
Taco toppings:
cheese, olives, tomatoes, lettuce, onion, taco sauce, sour cream, refried beans...)

Thaw rolls and let rise.  I almost always use the quick-rise method on the back of the bag.


Cook ground beef with the taco seasonings as per directions on the seasoning packet.

Heat oil in a large skillet.  I test my oil by dropping a one-inch piece of bread into the oil.  If it fries to a golden brown in about 30 seconds, I know it's ready.  Stretch each roll into a 3-4 inch circle.  You can also combine two rolls for a larger taco.  Fry on each side until golden brown.

Remove to a plate that has a couple paper towels on it to collect the oil drips.  Let everyone build the taco of their dreams with the toppings,


Here's my favorite:  scone, meat, cheese, onion, olives, lettuce, taco sauce.  So yummy; so fun!
