Bacon Cheeseburger Tacos

I tried to make bacon taco shells found here on Pinterest. I had them cooling and my very curious 2 year old decided to "touch" them. With a mustard bottle. Shells they were no longer...So we used hot dog buns instead to still give it a "taco" feel. They.were.awesome. Marley ate an entire "taco" bun and all and she never eats bread! I still want to give the actual bacon shells a try some time...because well a taco shell made out of bacon? Sounds pretty awesome to me!



Bacon Cheeseburger Tacos

1lb ground beef
1C ketchup
1/4C mustard
12 strips of bacon - cooked to your preference (extra crispy at our house!)
6 hot dog buns
shredded cheddar
shredded lettuce
dill pickle relish
"taco" sauce*

In a skillet brown and crumble the ground beef. Drain off any excess grease. Stir in the ketchup and mustard. Simmer for 10 minutes.

To assemble:
Lay 2 strips of bacon in a hot dog bun. Add in some of the hamburger mixture. Top with the cheddar cheese, lettuce and relish. Drizzle with "taco" sauce. Take a bite. Enjoy a trip to food heaven.
