These were a good change of pace from the usual tacos and burritos.

I can't wait to try this, I love Indian Tacos, I have made them before just throwing in ingrediants - the reason I am commenting is to tell you if you are in a hurry, you can fry some White Pita Bread and it tastes good also.

We had these at a mission trip Indian Pow-Wow about a week ago and these were great! The fry bread is exactly the way it is supposed to be. It will puff up, but then you put on the toppings (not too much) and fold up like a regular hard taco and eat it that way with your hands. It's something fun to try! Thanks for posting!

If you are looking for a great Indian Taco Recipe try #44376 Navajo Taco Recipe. This is not a good Fry Bread Recipe. (Indian Fry Bread does not include eggs.)

good, but more authentic if you make and season your own beans. Also, indian tacos are not mexican!! they are a native american dish.
