Shopping List
    For the Beef
  • 8 ounces lean ground beef
  • 1/2 tablespoon taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade) For the Rest
  • 4 to 6 taco-sized corn tortillas
  • 1/2 bell pepper or onion, sliced
  • shredded mozzarella cheese, to taste (dairy or non-dairy)
  • avocado oil, to taste Toppings
  • sour cream (dairy or non-dairy), cilantro, and hot sauce

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and add a little splash of olive oil. Add the sliced bell pepper or onion. Cook, stirring only every minute or so, for 4 to 5 minutes. It will be ready when the vegetables soft but still a bit crisp. Transfer to a bowl.
  2. Step 2: Put the empty pan back over medium high heat and add the ground beef. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until no longer pink inside. Use the side of the spatula to break the meat into small pieces as it cooks.
  3. Step 3: Once the meat has cooked, drain any released liquid and then put it back in the pan with the taco seasoning and a good splash of water. Season with salt as desired. Cook the meat over medium heat until the water has cooked off, about 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
  4. Step 4: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Warm the tortillas in a microwave (or oven) for a minute, until they are pliable.
  5. Step 5: Place the warm tortillas on a baking sheet and coat the tortilla generously in avocado oil on both sides.
  6. Step 6: Fill half of each tortilla with some of the beef and a little pepper or onion mix. Top with a sprinkling of cheese and fold the tortillas in half. Repeat. Note: try not to overstuff the tortillas.
  7. Step 7: Bake the tacos for 8 minutes, then flip and bake for another 8 minutes. They will be ready when they are golden brown and crispy.
  8. Serve: Top with sour cream, cilantro, and hot sauce. Enjoy immediately for the best crunch.

Recipe Notes

Note 1: These will also work with grain-free cassava tortillas. Just make sure to heat the tortillas until they are very pliable before stuffing, to avoid tearing.
