Tips for the Best Ground Beef Tacos
1. Choose the Right Beef
For the best flavor, opt for ground beef with a bit of fat (like 80/20). Leaner beef can result in a drier taco filling.
2. Customize Your Seasoning
Feel free to make your own taco seasoning with spices like cumin, chili powder, paprika, and onion powder for a personalized flavor.
3. Don’t Overfill
Be careful not to overfill your tacos, as it can make them difficult to eat and cause them to break.
4. Let Everyone Build Their Own
Set up a taco bar with all the toppings laid out so everyone can customize their tacos to their liking. This adds an element of fun and interaction to the meal!
Recipe Variations
- Chicken Tacos: Substitute ground beef with ground chicken or turkey for a lighter option.
- Vegetarian Tacos: Use black beans or lentils in place of meat and load up on veggies and cheese.
- Fish Tacos: For a different twist, use grilled or battered fish with similar toppings.
How to Store Leftover Ground Beef Tacos
- Refrigerator: Store any leftover beef in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Warm it up in a skillet or microwave before using it again.
- Taco Shells: Keep the taco shells in their original packaging or a sealed container to maintain freshness.
