Beef & Bean -- Oven Tacos image

Tacos. We love tacos. The kids devour them. They love the crunchy mess. They love the flavors. They love to see how full they can make them. And they love to eat them on their special taco plates. (My mom gave us some for Christmas...GREAT gift!) I love the concept of making tacos in the oven...and melting the cheese over the top of the meat. Then piling on the toppings. I doubled up the beef-bean taco meat and stashed the other half in the freezer...I'm thinking about using it for stuffed peppers. Or another taco night. Or enchiladas. We'll see what kind of inspiration strikes (and what other ingredients I have on hand!) when I pull it out of the freezer in the near future. Below is the "doubled version" recipe for the taco meat. Half it, if you want just for this dinner. Make recipe as is, if you want to freeze some. Or if you have a large family. Or are feeding a lot of boys. You get the picture.

The taco shells were too crispy for my liking. I think I'll use soft taco shells next time.

These tacos were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of beef, but I really enjoyed these tacos. The beans and cheese made up for the lack of meat.

These oven-baked tacos were a hit with my family! The beef and bean filling was flavorful and satisfying, and the crispy taco shells held up perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again.
