Testing Taco Kits from Supermarkets

Laura Stott tested several kits to find out the best for sharing with friends. Here are her results:

Simply Fiesta Chimichurri, £2.29, Aldi

This kit serves as an alternative for a Mexican celebration. Inside, you will find eight soft tacos, a sachet of tomato sauce, and a herb mix. However, the preparation process was somewhat confusing.

“I expected a tangy green sauce, but it was a disappointment.”

Classic Taco Meal Kit, £1.99, Morrisons

This kit has an excellent price and contains 12 crunchy corn shells, a sachet of tomato sauce, and spices. Perfect for a family dinner.

Red pepper and paprika-based spices add significant crunch, and the sauce adds freshness. This is really tasty!

“Wonderful shells made from 51% corn flour.”

Taco Kit Classico, £1.84, Asda

This kit delights with its fun packaging. It includes 12 shells, tomato sauce, and spices that are suitable even for kids.

“This kit is perfect for little kids who aren’t ready for spicy.”

Taco Kit, Tesco, serves 4, £1.75

A great price for a kit containing 12 corn shells and spices.

A real pleasure with the right seasoning.

“Simply delicious, an excellent price for a family gathering.”

Taco Shells, Sainsburys, serves 4, £1.80

Sainsbury's does not offer its own taco kit with all the ingredients. You will need to buy shells, sauce, and spices separately.

These shells are great, but their cost can be exorbitant.

Taco Kit, M&S, serves 4, £3

Marks & Spencer offers 12 corn tacos, a packet of spices, and a soft tomato sauce. It’s a decent option for sharing.

It's worth noting that the tacos have thin shells that may not be very easy to fill.

“Well-blended spices, but may lack the heat for those who enjoy stronger flavors.”

Capsicana Smoky Chipotle, £3.30, Serves 2, Tesco

This kit is designed for two and includes six soft tortillas, chipotle sauce, and a guacamole mix.

Though this kit is pricier, it has an exquisite flavor and pairs wonderfully with various products.

“An excellent choice if you don't like overly spicy food.”

Old El Paso, £2.75, serves 4

This well-known brand is reasonably priced and offers a convenient option for a quick evening meal.

The kit includes 12 corn tacos, a spice mix, and a packet of sauce.

“A simple and tasty option for a quick evening meal.”

This Taco Day is a great opportunity to enjoy delicious dishes while gathering with family or friends.

National Taco Day is not just a celebration. It’s a chance to embrace a variety of flavors and enjoy the preparation of meals that add warmth and coziness to family gatherings. Whether it’s a home dinner or a festive meeting with friends — tacos will always remain a popular choice for sharing.
