Easy Navajo Taco Recipe
I always tease my husband one of the reasons I married him was for his mom’s Navajo tacos. Hers are the perfect texture of a crisp outside and a soft inside. Since I have 3 kids under the age of 5, I don’t have much time to knead and wait for her yummy dough to rise so I instead took Kelli’s mother-in-law’s simple alternative of using Rhodes Rolls and modified them with what I had on hand in my fridge: a can of butter infused biscuits. These aren’t Deanna’s tacos but they are a pretty darn good knock off as my husband scarfed down 4 of them in one sitting!
Here’s the easiest (and fastest!) Navajo Taco recipe you’ll ever make:
Ingredients:
- Canned biscuits
- Olive oil
- HORMEL® Taco Meats Beef Crumbles
- Taco toppings
Directions:
- Open can of biscuits and set out for a few minutes until soft.
- Turn on pan of olive oil to medium heat.
- Flatten biscuits and stretch them out a bit.
- Drop biscuits onto warm pan and fry until light brown, flip.
- Top with warmed HORMEL® Taco Meats Beef Crumbles and favorite toppings.
These Beef Crumbles are seriously the best! I can just toss a bag in the grocery cart to make for a quick dinner for my family. Just heat and serve. Bam. Done and done.

The Crumbles are fab topped on any Mexican dish but these tacos are the way to go. Trust us. 😉
