Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized onion, diced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet of Taco Seasoning (Trader Joe’s recommended)
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
Instructions
- Cook the Onion: Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until browned and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
- Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until fully browned, ensuring there is no pink remaining.
- Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning and follow the packet instructions (for extra spice, you can use the entire packet).
- Simmer: Add the can of diced tomatoes and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Serve: Serve the taco meat hot with your favorite taco toppings, such as lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, and salsa. Enjoy!
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the taco seasoning to suit your spice preferences.
- You can swap out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
- For added flavor, consider adding a squeeze of lime or some cilantro to the taco filling.
