Easy Beef Soft Tacos

Usually once a week we have Mexican night, sometimes it’s taco or burrito night, once in a while it’s loaded nacho, or enchilada night. When I was at the grocery last night I grabbed everything I need to make enchiladas later this week, and I think I’ll have enough left over soft taco shells to have soft tacos one night too.

Mission Tortillas has the easy beef soft taco recipe I posted below. They also have a ton of other great recipes for Mexican night, and some recipes that would work great for football game day. Yum!

Beef Soft Tacos

Recipe Ingredients:

• 6 Mission® 8 inch Medium Flour Tortillas
• 1 1/4 pound Lean Ground Beef
• 1 Taco Seasoning Mix
• 1/2 cup Water
• 3/4 cup Packaged Iceberg Lettuce shredded
• 3/4 cup Pico De Gallo prepared
• 3/4 cup Shredded Pepperjack Cheese

Recipe Instructions:

1. Pre-heat oven to 250°F.
2. Heat a non-stick, medium size sauté pan over medium-high heat; on the stove top. Place raw ground beef into pan and brown (approximately 5 minutes); then drain. Place drained cooked beef back into the non-stick sauté pan, add taco seasoning and water. Continue to cook until water is gone and beef is thoroughly mixed with seasoning. Reserve warm.
3. While beef is cooking place Mission® tortillas in microwave to warm (30 seconds).
4. Fill each tortilla with approximately ¼ cup of reserved taco meat, top with 1 tablespoon of lettuce, 1 tablespoon of pico de gallo and 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese.
5. For smaller families reduce the ingredient amounts in half to serve only 6 tacos.
