Ground Beef Tacos Recipe

 



Get ready for THE BEST Ground Beef Tacos you’ve ever made! This taco meat is tender, flavorful and juicy. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or Taco Tuesday!

Everyone has their go-to dinners, and these tacos are one of mine. My family LOVES the mega-flavorful taco meat and we like to pull out all our favorite toppings and let everyone create their own tacos. It’s a fun and easy dinner that comes together in about 15 minutes!

Ground Beef Taco Meat

  • Sauté onion and ground beef in a skillet until browned and cooked through. Drain off any fat and return to the stove top.
  • Stir in tomato sauce and my homemade taco seasoning.
  • Bring mixture to a simmer and let the flavors blend for a few minutes.

That’s it! Soooo easy and your mind will be blown away!

Do I Need To Add Water To Taco Meat?

Nope! That’s the secret trick to this flavorful taco meat. Skip the water and opt for tomato sauce instead. You’ll be left with an ultra flavorful taco meat that’s rich and juicy.

PRO TIP: If you want a spicier taco meat, try using half taco sauce and half tomato sauce!

A plate full of crispy flour tortilla ground beef tacos with toppings.

I just recently found these crunchy flour tortilla shells from Old El Paso that are great for an added crunch and hold up well. We typically use a soft flour tortilla, but it’s always fun to switch it up every once in a while.
