Tacos are great. Mini Tacos are Better!

I am a HUGE fan of these mini taco shells! They are made by a husband & wife team that started making them for fun, as a hobby. Turns out, they weren’t the only ones who like mini tacos and they started shipping them around the country, including to my house for just about every party I have! I even bought this custom mini taco shell stand from them. Check them out!
