Tacos, Burritos, & Enchiladas: 20 Recipes for Delicious Fillings & Toppings

When it comes to quick weeknight meals, or a meal for a mixed crowd of people, tacos and burritos reign supreme. Fold a tortilla (corn or flour) around a scoop of fresh summer tomatoes and soft black beans, or pulled pork simmered in the slow cooker with peppers, and you have a meal that pleases nearly anyone. Tacos, burritos, and enchiladas may have originated in Mexico and Latin America, but they have been welcomed and adapted by cooks all over the world.

Here are a few of our own recipes and adaptations of this most wonderful style of meal from slow cooker enchiladas, to fried chicken flautas, to the perfect breakfast burrito. We have simple bean burritos, and instructions for making any kind of pulled meat in the slow cooker: Barbacoa beef, pulled chicken, classic smoky pork carnitas. Everything you need for taco night is right here!
