I love that these can be eaten at breakfast, lunch, or dinner and make a great handheld snack, too! Pair them with some homemade queso, salsa, or salsa cream if you like it saucy!
I mean, these could totally make a delicious breakfast! Look at how cute and delicious they are!
Another idea would be to stack taco meat atop these beauties for mini tostadas!
