About
Taco Potatoes essentially take the core concept of corned beef hash: hearty, crispy potatoes and tender beef together at last. Where Taco Potatoes differ is an infusion of spicy, tangy Tex-Mex seasonings and even juicer beef. But the potatoes are the real star of this dish, with fluffy interiors that absorb and accent the flavors around it. Whether you put this in a taco shell, wrap it in a burrito, or just eat it with a spoon, you will be amazed that something this good is so simple to make!
