I am so excited that my friends at José Olé asked me to whip up a recipe that would be perfect for game day to share with you.
Crock Pot Game Day Taco Nachos
It got me thinking about some of my favorite dishes and it hit me that we should totally to adapt one of our favorite party recipes to make these Crock Pot Game Day Taco Nachos! It is so perfect. You keep the topping warm in the slow cooker and then the José Olé Beef & Cheese Mini Tacos bake up so quickly for the base of the dish that it is super convenient to have fresh ones made up as needed throughout the night! I love how well they crisp up in the oven!
The results? Ah-mazing! The mini tacos added a whole new flavor to one our favorite nacho recipes.
I made up a batch (okay two batches 😉 ) for Aunt Lou, Miss Add and Mikey. The adults loved the meaty tacos as the base, while the kiddo loved that they were cute little tacos– of course. I loved the fun little tacos were not only tasty, but they were also filling because they are a protein-packed treat!
A few recipe notes:
- This recipe makes a LOT of the topping. We like to keep it warm throughout the night in the slow cooker and bake up just enough of the mini tacos to eat right then. They are so easy to just grab and pop in the oven, we like to have them nice and crispy from the oven.
- If you have leftover topping or if you don’t want to feed 10-12 people, you can store leftover topping in the fridge for lunch the next day (we did).
- I crocked this up in a 6 qt slow cooker. You could probably make it in a 5 qt, but I wouldn’t go much smaller than that.
