If you read my Monthly Favorites from June, you may remember I mentioned being obsessed with the Old El Paso taco boats. I love them! I made them with our typical taco filling, loaded with our favorite toppings - my taco shells are jealous! 😀 I even made the boats with masts out of lettuce!! My little boy thought it was super cool so I definitely scored some points for that. 😀

When I saw their mini version, I knew I wanted to use them in a fun summer dessert! Mini food is so fun to make and eat - great for parties or family movie nights. Besides there is a cheesecake filling involved and when you say cheesecake - I am there! This one has only four ingredients which means they are super easy to make! Perfect for unexpected guests or for that sweet tooth cravings for a movie night. 🙂

To cut down of the prep, do few steps a day before. I fried the taco boats the day before and they were still nice and crispy the next day. The filling can be made ahead of time as well. Chop the peaches and assemble the boats right before serving. You can use berries to make them even prettier or stir in lemon zest into the filling for a little zing. Don't have a fresh fruit on hand - use fruit preserves. Be creative and make it fun!

    Mmm tacos are the best and so much more fun in boat form. But in boat form AND dessert form?? I'm most definitely IN!
