Notes

  • Make Ahead Instructions: The taco meat filling can be made 2-3 days in advance (depending on the freshness of your ingredients), stored in the fridge. When ready to use, fill tacos and bake as instructed. Assembled tacos, in the shells, will keep for a few hours stored in covered in the refrigerator (the taco shells will start to soften too much if assembled for longer than a few hours before baking).
  • Freezing Instructions: You can freeze taco meat filling in a freezer safe container forup to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, fill tacos and bake as directed.
