Transfer sour cream & salsa to separate bowls as well so that the original containers remain clean and people don’t cross contaminate.
Step 6: Heat Up Taco Shells and Start Filling
Preheat oven to 300 and warm up hard taco shells for 5 minutes.
Place fillings in a row on a counter or table so that all toppings are easily reached by children and adults. Have each person place a taco shell in a bowl (hold upright with fingers) and fill with your choice of fillings.
