Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 cup water
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 cup dairy-free cheese shreds
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1 medium lime, cut into wedges
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef, add the water, and stir to combine.
Simmer the mixture for 4-5 minutes until the sauce thickens, adjusting seasoning with salt and black pepper to your taste.
While the beef is cooking, warm the corn tortillas. You can do this by placing them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 15-20 seconds.
To assemble the tacos, fill each tortilla with a portion of the beef mixture.
Top with dairy-free cheese shreds, ensuring they slightly melt into the warm beef.
Add slices of avocado, diced tomato, and shredded lettuce over the top.
Serve with lime wedges on the side for an added citrusy kick.
