SPAM® TACOS



Spam® Tacos image

Yes, this dish is made with Spam®. I use the low-sodium Spam®. This dish is quick, easy and delicious. I also made Mexican Rice as a side dish to go with the tacos. You can also top your tacos with sour cream, guacamole, or salsa.

2 tablespoons water, or more as needed
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas

NO FUSS SHREDDED BEEF TACOS



No Fuss Shredded Beef Tacos image

This recipe was created for a Cinco De Mayo work potluck taco bar that was a big hit. The coffee in the recipe adds a hint of smokiness and assists with tenderizing the meat as it cooks. Serve with warm tortillas and your favorite toppings. For less heat, omit jalapenos.
