Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step

Add garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, ground cumin, and red pepper flakes; stir until fragrant. (30 seconds)

03

Step

Add shredded potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned. (12 minutes)

04

Step

Stir in diced luncheon meat and continue to cook until lightly browned, melding the flavors beautifully. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Pour in tomato sauce, stirring to combine, and remove from heat. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Warm tortillas in a toaster oven or conventional oven on a warm setting until pliable and slightly puffed. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Spoon generous portions of the potato mixture into the warmed tortillas.

08

Step

Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dash of your favorite hot sauce or a dollop of sour cream.
Prepare the potato mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Simply reheat and assemble the tacos when ready to serve.
Feel free to substitute the luncheon meat with cooked chorizo or breakfast sausage for a different twist.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper along with the red pepper flakes.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, diced onions, or a squeeze of lime juice for added freshness.
