  • “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.”

  • “Fry bread is usually thicker. It is not supposed to be flat like a tortilla.”

  • “MY whole family love these and trust me it is hard to cook something that they all love!! Thanks for this recipe and keep up the cooking!!”

  • “We skipped the making of the crisps and substituted chips for it. It was easier to make and tasted just as good! Thank you for the recipe. We will make it again!”

  • “I’m going to prepare this dish for my Home Econmics test. Seems hopeful.”

  • “My family really liked this very versatile dinner.I provided all the “fixins” for a taco salad like salsa, sour cream, and avocado in addition to the garnishes the chef has suggested above.The meal was quick and tasty.However, I would have liked to see some more specific instructions provided for the fry bread.Exactly how thin is this supposed to be rolled? I had mine down to about 1/8 inch and it still seemed a little thick when fried.Also instructions for amounts and temperature for the fry oil.I did mine this time in a 10″ iron skillet filled about 1/3 the way up the sides, and the oil between 350-360.The temp worked fine, but next time I may use a deeper container.The air escaping as the bread is fried causes lots of splashing.Over all this is a very excellent quick week night dinner choice.”
