Yield 15-20 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb lean ground beef (omit if serving vegetarians only)
1 (30 g) package taco seasoning mix, plus 1 cup water (omit if serving vegetarians only.)
1 (14 ounce) can refried beans (vegetarian)
1 cup salsa
2 cups head lettuce, shredded
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 medium red onion, cut into slivers (optional)
1 cup monterey jack cheese or 1 medium cheddar cheese, grated
3/4 cup low-fat sour cream (optional)
15 -20 taco shells, warmed

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef in skillet and drain.
  • Stir in taco seasoning mix and 1 cup water.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • While beef mixture is simmering, combine 1/4 cup of salsa into the refried beans (may skip this step if you prefer).

Tips:

  • Utilize a variety of vegetables: Incorporate a mix of vegetables to provide texture, flavor, and nutritional value to your tacos. Some great options include bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, zucchini, and corn.
  • Choose your protein wisely: For vegetarian tacos, explore protein sources like tofu, tempeh, seitan, or beans. If using meat, opt for lean protein options like grilled chicken or fish.
  • Don't forget the spices: Use a combination of spices to add flavor to your tacos. Common choices include chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, and garlic powder.
  • Prepare flavorful sauces: Sauces can elevate the taste of your tacos. Experiment with different options like salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or a spicy chipotle sauce.
  • Choose the right tortillas: Select high-quality tortillas that are fresh and pliable. Corn tortillas are a traditional choice, but you can also use flour tortillas or whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
  • Assemble your tacos with care: Layer your tacos with a variety of ingredients to create a balanced and flavorful bite. Start with a tortilla, add your protein, vegetables, and sauces, and top with cilantro, cheese, or avocado.
