The Best Tacos

This is one of my favorites! Super fast, easy, and delicious!

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Large Batch Taco Seasoning
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons chili powder
  • 3 Tablespoons cumin
  • 1 Tablespoon Himalayan or sea salt
  • 1 Tablespoon finely ground pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano

Mix all ingredients together then store in an airtight container or jar with a tight-fitting lid. This is my favorite and I always keep it on hand for everything Mexican!

Ingredients
  • 2 pounds of ground chicken, turkey, or ground sirloin (or a combo!) You can do just 1 if you don’t want a lot of leftovers.
  • 3 Tablespoons of Taco Seasoning from above.
  • ½ cup water.
  • 1 jar fresh salsa
Directions:
  1. Brown meat in a large skillet. Drain grease.
  2. Add 3 T of taco seasoning and ½ cup water, and half-full jar salsa.
  3. Simmer for 10 minutes on low.
Serve With:

Serve on top of a bed of lettuce, top with avocado, cheese, or plain Greek yogurt with roasted cauliflower, butternut squash, or sweet potatoes on the side. I typically serve this with corn and sweet potato tortilla chips, also. My kids like it in soft tortilla shells.
