These fry bread tacos are a favorite at aboriginal pow wows all summer long. For easier eating, especially at picnics, cut cooked fry bread into crouton-sized pieces; divide onto individual plates before adding the remaining ingredients on top.

    Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
