Description
Savor the warmth and richness of ground beef tortillas, a delightful blend of savory beef, vibrant vegetables, and fresh toppings wrapped in soft tortillas.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 8 small tortillas
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 cup guacamole
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start with the beef: In a cast iron skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until it’s browned. Don’t forget to stir occasionally to break it apart and ensure even cooking. Drain any excess fat.
- Sauté the veggies: Once the beef is cooked, add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they’re softened and aromatic—let those flavors mingle.
- Season to perfection: Sprinkle the mixture with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well and simmer for an additional 2 minutes to allow the spices to meld beautifully with the beef and vegetables.
- Warm the tortillas: In a separate pan or the microwave, gently warm the tortillas until they’re pliable.
- Assemble the tortillas: Spoon the flavorful beef mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle generously with shredded cheese, then fold over, creating a delicious pocket.
- Garnish and serve: Arrange your assembled tortillas on a serving platter and lavish them with guacamole and a dollop of sour cream.
Notes
Make-ahead tips: Prep the beef mixture in advance and store in the refrigerator. Just warm it up when you’re ready for meal time. Experiment with toppings for customization.
