Ingredients
 

Taco Meat

  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • *taco seasoning ingredients (below)
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 beef bouillon cube
  • optional add-in: kidney, pinto or black beans

Taco Seasoning

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon hot smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions
 

  • Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet at medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onion and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ground beef, 1 teaspoon salt, and garlic powder. Cook until browned, about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, to break up the meat. Drain grease.
  • Add the taco seasoning ingredients, water, and bouillon cube. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until sauce is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • (Add a can of beans if you'd like.)

Notes

*Freeze the taco meat in small ziplock bags enough for one flour taco or 2 corn tortillas, or in bigger portions if you want to use it for a family meal.
