Chicken Nugget Tacos

A while back I posted a recipe for an Italian chicken nugget casserole, which had surpassed all my expectations. Since then, I've still been playing with ideas of how to transform boring old chicken nuggets into something more adult and tasty. These chicken nugget tacos are just that. Seriously, why didn't I think of using chicken nuggets in tacos earlier? It's so easy and so good. Now, this is more of an idea than a recipe. My favorite tacos are simple: chicken, cheese, hot sauce, onions. Sometimes salsa, sometimes not. But you can build your taco however you like.

Ingredients:
Chicken nuggets
Taco shells, hard or soft
Taco Seasoning, optional
Hot sauce, optional
Shredded Cheese, optional
Lettuce, optional
Tomato, optional
Onion, optional
Salsa, optional
Beans, optional
Sour cream, optional

Directions:
Bake your chicken nuggets according to package direction. Cut your chicken nuggets into strips or little bits. Toss with hot sauce or taco seasoning--or both! I tossed mine with hot sauce. Assemble tacos with your favorite ingredients. I then put mine into the micrwave to melt the cheese.
