FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I use a different type of pasta?

• Yes! While linguine works great, you can swap it for fettuccine, penne, or whatever pasta you have on hand.

Do I have to use Stand ’N Stuff taco shells?

• Nope—any crunchy taco shells will work. The Stand ’N Stuff ones just make it easier to load the pasta without spills.

What kind of chicken should I use?

• I used store bought precooked grilled chicken breast strips but any cooked chicken will work.
• This is a great way to use up leftover chicken or grab a grocery store rotisserie chicken.

Can I make these ahead of time?

• You can prep the pasta filling in advance, but it’s best to assemble the tacos right before serving so the shells stay crispy.
