Ground Beef Tacos
Report
These soft shell Ground Beef Tacos are a simple meal to make any weeknight. Ground beef is cooked with onion and garlic, then simmered in vegetable broth before serving atop your favorite tortillas. Top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and more, then enjoy warm!

Ingredients
- 1 ¼ lbs. ground beef (85% lean)
- 1 onion finely diced, large
- 1 garlic finely minced, pod
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 ½ teaspoons taco seasoning homemade
- ⅓ cup beef broth low sodium
- 8 tortillas flour, corn or crispy OK
Toppings
- romaine lettuce sliced thin
- tomato chopped
- cheddar cheese shredded
- sour cream
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, and add the olive oil.
- When the oil is hot, add the onion.
- Cook the onion for about 5 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent. Add the garlic once the onion is nearly done, stirring so it doesn't burn.
- When the garlic becomes fragrant, add the ground beef. Use a wooden spoon to break it into smaller pieces.
- Sprinkle in the taco seasoning.
- Cook for around 10 minutes or until the beef is browned thoroughly, then pour in the broth, scraping the bottom of the pan for browned bits as the liquid soaks it up.
- Turn down the heat and simmer for 10 more minutes. You'll know it is done once the broth has soaked into the meat and onion mixture. The meat will be entirely cooked through, but still juicy.
- Serve immediately on tortillas and top with your favorite taco toppings.
Notes
- Make this fun for the kids! Whenever we make these Ground Beef Tacos, I set out the different toppings for the tacos in small bowls and let our daughter make her own. She thinks it's so much fun, and this simple act gets her excited to eat the dinner that she had a hand in.
