Best Ever Ground Beef Tacos

This Ground Beef Taco recipe is anything but typical. While it sounds like the tacos you grew up with, this recipe comes with an easy-to-make, from-scratch taco seasoning mix, and simmers in beef broth and tomato sauce for extra flavor. You'll never go back to those taco seasoning packets again!
