  4. After "chicken" and shells are done, stuff shell with Cheese, then add "chicken", then add more Cheese on top (for extra cheesiness, of course). Then place filled taco shells on a baking pan, bake for about 5 mins until golden brown and cheese is melted, or until desired crispiness..

  5. Add all the veggies youd like and enjoy!.

Season chicken with chili powder mixture.

Hearty mushrooms, creamy pinto beans, and vibrant red bell peppers combine for this delicious taco filling.

If you ask me, every great taco possesses the following qualities: something hearty (beans), something creamy (avocado), something crisp (shredded cabbage), something tangy (pickled onions and feta), and lots of fresh flavors.

These tacos have those qualities in spades.
