Pantry Tacos Recipe

By Wheggi
Difficulty: Medium | Total Time: 15 min. | Makes: Depends how much you can steal!

Used to make these when I was living in a garage and would “borrow” the stuff from my friend’s pantry that he wouldn’t miss. They’re actually quite tasty.

INGREDIENTS
  • veg. oil
  • some corn tortillas
  • 1 can Spam
  • I can Van de Camp's pork and beans
  • slices of American cheese
  • ketchup
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Heat oil in a skillet. Using tongs, quickly fry the corn tortillas, folding them in half when they become pliable. Remove and pat with a paper towel to absorb excess oil
  2. Fry spam. Cut up into small chunks and add pork and beans. Heat through.
  3. Fill tortillas with spam/bean mixture. Garnish with American cheese and ketchup. Eat like it will be the last food you chow for a long while . . .

  • Sorry if my last post sounded a little harsh.
    I meant to include 'With no disrespect meant to your parents...' in the last sentence.
    Hope you are eating Much Better now :-).

  • Gaack! The epitome of Bad American cooking - processed cheese, badly spiced pork and sweet beans. Why didn't you include a preformed taco shell for the 'Royal Flush'?
    If you held a loaded gun to my head I probably wouldn't eat this!

    Seriously, if your parents raised you right you would have eaten Much Better on the cheap.

  • Sounds awful, but it's creative so I'll vote for it.
