Tacos

Ok so the other night I was making left overs from camping for dinner and I decided to cut some time off the next nights cooking time which is always nice during the week, when you are working and cooking and everything else that needs to be done. So this is what I came up with!



Tacos:
1pound of ground turkey/beef
1 medium onion (diced)
garlic salt, pepper (to taste)
1 package taco seasoning (see below for the homemade kind)
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of water

So I cook up the meat and the onions at the same time, season to taste. Then I put the taco seasoning and the water into a pan( I use ground turkey so I use water to keep the meat moist and the taco seasoning mixes better that way too.)  Then I cool and refrigerate for use.


Now I next night I took out:

10 Small flour tortillas
shredded cheese
salsa(homemade is the best) But you can always use your favorite
shredded lettuce
diced onions


Then I take a deep glass pan I take my tortillas and fold them like I taco and stack the pan till there all that way. Then I take the meat mixture from the night before (I do not heat it that's not needed) and I place meat and cheese into each of the taco shells then I place in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes just till the cheese is melted and the tortillas are going to be a little brown around the edges. Then take them and allow everyone to put what they want in them. I like this because one you are still getting the soft taco but you will get a little bit of a crunch to with out having to fry them also you are using one pan and you can make all ten at once time is a big deal when you don't have much to spear.


Well enjoy my version of quick and easy tacos!!!


Also you can use left over meat from dinner past I have used fried chicken, bbq chicken, it just gives it a different taste but you are not throwing meat out and you once again are saving time!!!
