Spicy Potato Tacos

I found this recipe on the Food Network website and it has become a family favorite. We call these our glorified tacos because you can add in anything you want. It's such an easy recipe and definitely worth the effort.

***I usually don't worry about using red potatoes. I will use whatever we have and it turns out great. Also, I microwave the potatoes on the baked potato setting to make them soft before cutting them to be seasoned***
