Indian Fry Bread
Happy FRY-Day, everyone!

Indian fry bread is the foundation of a popular dish called Indian Tacos. Originally known as Navajo Tacos, they have been adopted by other tribes. The Navajo taco was voted the State Dish of Arizona in a 1995 poll conducted by the Arizona Republic newspaper.

Indian tacos are the universal modern powwow food (see below). They are also popular attractions at many fairs, festivals, and outdoor summer shows held in the southwest. People will line up to wait their turn to buy some freshly made tacos.

Indian tacos are a combination of beans or ground beef, chopped lettuce, sliced tomato, shredded Cheddar cheese, and optional green chile atop plate-sized rounds of crispy Navajo or Indian fry bread. No plates or silverware are need, as you just fill the fry bread with your desired filling, roll it up, and eat.

Looks mighty tempting. I like regular tacos and most Mexican food. The Indian taco’s sound like the regular ones, except that bread is a bit different. That Fry bread looks good! Of course everything looks good to me! LOL!

Good afternoon, Yorkie.

Mmmmm .... that looks good. I’ve never eaten Indian Fry Bread but it looks delicious. I think I need to stop for lunch.

When Jaycee mentioned going to McDonald’s, I wanted a hamburger. Now, I’m hungry for a couple of tacos.
