Taco Filling Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

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

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the Mixture

    Stir in the taco seasoning and mix well. Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens.

Taco Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare Taco Shells

    While the beef mixture is simmering, prepare your taco shells according to the package instructions (if necessary).

  2. 6

    Assemble Tacos

    Once the beef mixture is ready, take a taco shell and fill it with a generous amount of the beef mixture.

  3. 7

    Add Toppings

    Top the beef with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and jalapeños to taste.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately while they are warm and enjoy!
