Taco Shells

12 pieces Corn tortillas

Protein Filling

1 pound Ground beef

2 tablespoons Taco seasoning

Vegetable Fillings

2 cups Lettuce, shredded

1 cup Tomato, diced

1 medium Onion, diced

1 cup Cilantro, chopped

Toppings

1 cup Shredded cheese

1 cup Sour cream

1 cup Salsa

Method

Prepare the Protein Filling

Cook the Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Seasoning

Stir in the taco seasoning and a splash of water (about 1/4 cup). Mix well and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, until the beef is fully cooked and the flavors meld together.

Prepare the Vegetables

Chop the Vegetables

While the beef is cooking, wash and chop the lettuce, tomato, onion, and cilantro. Put them in a bowl and set aside.

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the Tortillas

In a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame, warm each corn tortilla for about 10-15 seconds on each side, until pliable.

Fill the Tacos

Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, onion, and cilantro.

Add Toppings

Finish with shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa on top. Fold the tortillas over the filling.
