Grow to like heated taco shell (6)

I believe the answer is:

warmto

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'grow to' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'heated taco shell' is the wordplay.
'heated' becomes 'warm' (I've seen this in another clue).
'shell' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (only the shell of the word is left).
'taco' with its middle removed is 'to'.
'warm'+'to'='WARMTO'

'like' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
