Tacos

I love it when we have Taco Night. It means mealtime will be a breeze. Here is how we make tacos:

1 lb. ground beef
1 package of taco seasoning
1 package of soft tortillas or hard tacos (or both!)
Salsa
Tomatoes
Lettuce
Grated Mexican cheese blend

First I brown the beef, then drain. Add the taco seasoning and about 1/3 cup of water. Let it simmer to all the water is gone. Next I place the soft tacos in the microwave and cover with a damp paper towel. Set the microwave for about 35 seconds. To prepare the hard tacos, I preheat the over to 350 degrees; place the shells on a baking sheet and into the oven. I usually pull them out in 5-10 minutes.

I cut up the tomatoes and shred the lettuce. I buy the cheese already grated. Voila! I’m done and in record time. Tacos are always a hit around our house.
