    Taco Bell Chalupa Shells


    Source of Recipe


    the web

    List of Ingredients




    2 1/2 cups unbleached flour
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
    1 cup milk
    Oil for deep fat frying

    Recipe



    To make the chalupa shell, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut
    in shortening and add milk. Shape dough into a long cylinder and divide equally
    into 6 balls. Pat each ball out into a circle 5-inches in diameter (make the
    circles thinner in the middle so there will be a depression to hold the
    toppings).

    Fry each disc in hot oil until puffed and golden on both sides (turn once).
    Drain on absorbent paper towels.

    Pile your choice of ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, peppers, and cheese.
    Accompany, if desired, with salsa, sliced black olives, sour cream, or
    guacamole.

    Makes 6 very large tacos.
