Method

Preparation

1

Cook the Ground Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.

2

Add Taco Seasoning

Once the beef is browned, drain excess fat if necessary. Add the taco seasoning to the skillet along with 1/2 cup of water. Stir well and let simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

3

Prepare Tortillas

While the beef is simmering, warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

Assembly

Build Your Tacos

Take a warm tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the seasoned beef mixture onto it. Top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced jalapeños, and a dollop of sour cream.

5

Add Optional Toppings

If desired, add sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime for extra flavor.

Serving

Serve Immediately

Serve the tacos immediately while warm, with remaining toppings available on the side for guests to customize their tacos.
