Extremely Easy Navajo Tacos

Is there anybody out there that hasn't had a Navajo Taco? You usually find them at fairs or carnivals. They are yummy! It is a scone covered with chili, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and other delicious toppings on them. Now I have tried to make homemade scones, they ended up tasting like pretzels. Not ideal for Navajo tacos. I was clipping coupons the other day and there was some for Rhodes Rolls. Rhodes Rolls is pre-made dough for rolls, bread, and cinnamon rolls. I am sure there are several other brands of frozen rolls, I just know Rhodes really well since they are based in Utah where I am from.

Navajo Tacos

thawed out rolls, get out however many you are planning to serve
chili
cheese
olives
lettuce
tomatoes
diced chilies
onions
jalapenos 

Now all you have to do to make these scrumptious Navajo tacos is let the rolls sit out just until they are pliable, don't let them rise! Once they get to that point, have a little bit of hot oil a pan, not too hot they will burn quick. 
Stretch out the rolls to make them flat, be careful they will get thin in places. Place them in the oil and let them brown, once the side is brown flip to brown the other side. Place them on a paper towel to get some of the oil off. Heat up the chili and top with the toppings listed above.
