Taco Filling

Taco Shells

Method

Prepare Taco Filling

  1. 1

    Cook Ground Beef

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

  2. 2

    Add Seasoning

    Once the beef is browned, drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and stir to combine.

  3. 3

    Add Water and Simmer

    Pour in the water and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

  4. 4

    Add Black Beans and Corn

    Stir in the black beans and corn, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Prepare Taco Shells

  1. 5

    Warm Tortillas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the mini corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side, until pliable.

Assemble Tacos

  1. 6

    Fill Tortillas

    Take a warmed tortilla and spoon in a generous amount of the taco filling.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, and sliced jalapeños as desired.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Repeat the filling and topping process with remaining tortillas. Serve mini tacos warm.
