Prep time 20 minutes Cook time 15 minutes Servings 4 Servings Print Recipe Ingredients 1 lb ground beef 8 small corn or flour tortillas 1 packet taco seasoning 1/2 cup water 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese 1 cup shredded lettuce 1 tomato, diced Sour cream and salsa to serve Instructions To navigate cooking steps, place focus on a step and use left, right, home, and end keys. Prepare your toppings: shred the lettuce, dice the tomato, and set everything out within reach. Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up as it browns. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until no pink remains. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning packet and water to the beef. Stir to combine and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce thickens. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds. Spoon the beef mixture into each tortilla. Add cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, and salsa to taste. Serve immediately while the tortillas are warm.
