Ingredients
For the tacos:

- 3-5 tablespoons taco seasoning depending on how much flavor you like
- 8 ounces tomato sauce
- 12 taco shells hard or fajita size soft shells
- 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend or cheddar cheese
Toppings:
- lettuce, tomato, onion, jalapeno, salsa, etc
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400º Fahrenheit.
- In a skillet on the stovetop, brown and crumble the ground beef until it is no longer pink. Drain off any fat. Make sure this is drained as much as possible so the tacos don't get soggy. 2 pounds ground beef
- Add the taco seasoning and tomato sauce. Mix well and let heat through for 5 minutes on the stovetop over medium-low heat. 3-5 tablespoons taco seasoning, 8 ounces tomato sauce
- Place the taco shells in baking pans. This can be a 8x8 or 9x13 baking dish, depending on how much you are making. Line with parchment paper for easy cleanup. 12 taco shells
- Bake the empty taco shells for 5 minutes.
- Divide the meat between the taco shells and top with cheese.
- Bake for 5-10 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is melted. Watch them closely so they don’t get too brown. If they seem to be browning unevenly you can rotate the pans.
- Top with any of your favorite taco toppings and enjoy!
