Kid Friendly Taco Cones

I was looking for something to give my toddlers for lunch the other day. So I looked in the fridge and saw some taco meat that I had recently made. They like tacos so I decided to make them a taco with half of a flour tortilla and what I ended up with was a Taco Cone. I was pretty impressed with myself.

So here is how you make it. This is so simple...

Cut the tortilla in half.



Scoop a small amount of taco meat on each half.




Take on corner and fold it to meet the top.


Fold the edge of the tortilla under.



Fold the other corner on top.



Cut a small slit in the side of the tortilla. Make sure you make the cut under the corner of the tortilla that is folded over.



Tuck the corner inside the slit and push it down to secure it.





Here you have the cone with the taco meat.



Next is the toppings. Which can be whatever you or your kids like



My kids just like lettuce and cheese. So here is how it turns out. I think it's pretty cut and my kids loved it because they could hold it without the meat and toppings falling out all over the place.

If your kids don't like tacos you could use chicken or a wide variety of other fillers and toppings if you prefer. Oh and they are adult friendly too so be creative. :)
