Description

A simple taco meat recipe that is great for using in burritos, tacos, nachos, or quesadillas!


Ingredients

Scale

1 lb ground beef (we prefer 90/10)

1 TBSP oil (I use tallow, but you can use your preferred oil)

1/2 yellow onion diced

1 packet taco seasoning

1/2 Cup salsa

1/4 Cup diced green chiles (I use canned Anaheim peppers from my garden)


Instructions

1. Heat oil on medium heat in a 10″ cast iron skillet. Add diced onions and ground beef.

2. Cook the onion and ground beef, stirring and breaking up the meat continuously, until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink, and the onions are translucent.

3. Turn heat to low.  Add taco seasoning packet, and water according to packet instructions. Stir in salsa and diced green chiles.

4. Continue cooking and stirring until the majority of the water is gone.

5. Serve however you please! I prefer to have mine over chips with cheese, lettuce, red onion, and some additional salsa.
