  2. Taco seasoning
  3. 1 poundGround beef
  4. 2/3Tomatoe sauce or juice
  5. Optional toppings
  6. Taco sauce
  7. Shredded Lettuce

  14. Soft or hard tortillas

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Fry your ground beef in a large skillet till it is cooked through on medium heat. Once the meat is cooked through, drain the meat of all the grease. Then add your taco seasoning. On the back of the seasoning package it tells you to add water. I substitute tomatoe sauce or juice instead of using water. Depends on what I have on hand. Sometimes I add Worcestershire sauce too. Just a teaspoon of 2. I Simmer on low. Make sure you are stirring the skillet and the liquid has been reduced and mixed in.

  2. 2

    After the meat has cooked I put the taco meat in a big bowl. Cut up your toppings and warm the tortillas.

  3. 3

    This is not authentic mexican tacos. Most Americans use water and use a premixed taco seasoning. I have a taco seasoning in my recipes. I use that on occasion. This is a picture of a preseasoned mix you can buy. If you dont have anything like this in your country you can use the recipe in my recipes list.

  4. 4

    After warming the soft tortillas I take a warm soft tortilla and add a tablespoon of taco meat. I then add shredded cheese, tomatoes, pickled jalapenos, sour cream and taco sauce. You can use whatever you like for toppings for your tacos. Enjoy.
