Ground Beef Soft Taco's

A simple ground beef taco is a wonderful thing. When you eat out at a really authentic Mexican place, the taco's are served on warmed tortilla's and 2 - 3 tablespoons of meats and topped with a little fresh salsa.

I start with warmed fresh tortilla's, a little lettuce on the bottom, ground beef, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, salsa fresca, sour cream, couple of slices of avocado and a wedge of lime.

Ingredients:
Fresh corn tortillas
1 pound lean ground beef
1 tablespoon McCormick original taco seasoning
1 tablespoon Wondra flour
Shredded iceberg lettuce
Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Salsa fresca
Avocado
Lite sour cream
1 lime

Preparation:

Place the ground beef into a 10" sauté pan and cook on medium high to brown the beef. The key to my taco meat is to leave the ground beef in medium size chucks, like the size of marbles. As the meat cooks add the taco seasoning and flour. The flour will soak up the juices and hold the meat together. The meat will be done cooking in about 8 minutes.

Heat a 12" sauté pan to medium high. Add 2 tortillas and cook for about 1 minute per side, no need for butter or oil. Place the tortilla's on a plate or taco rack if you have one. Start with a little shredded lettuce across the bottom of the tortilla. Next, add a couple tablespoons of the ground beef and top with shredded Monterrey Jack cheese, salsa fresca, sour cream, avocado and a wedge of lime. Squeeze the lime over the taco and you're ready eat enjoy and awesome taco.
