We love to watch a good football game at our house, and when we do I always like to have some quick finger foods on hand to serve up during the game. I really like this super simple kid friendly mini taco bites appetizer recipe using Scoops Tortilla chips. They’re just like a taco, only they’re bite size, and the perfect size for little hands. You can make them by the plateful, and slip them in the microwave for a few seconds to melt the cheese.
