Baked Tacos

Yes. The answer is always yes to cheesy crispy baked tacos, especially on those busy, busy nights during the week.
With some ground beef, taco seasoning, shredded cheese, and all of your favorite taco toppings, these bad boys come together lightening fast. And the key is crispifying those hard taco shells for a few minutes BEFORE you add your filling. It will truly make all of the difference.
From there, you’ll pop it back in the oven again until you have melted cheesy beefy goodness. And you can make this work with ground beef, ground pork, ground turkey or even ground chicken. It’s all good.
We love it with some pico de gallo, avocado slices, and a dollop of sour cream with a fresh squeeze of lime juice. Taco Tuesdays (or Wednesdays/Thursdays/Fridays) never looked so so good.
