Tempt my Taco Luvin’ Tummy!!

tmttSummer09

As most of you know, my hubby and I live and work full-time at a Christian camp.  We have several youth summer camps, but also cater to adult retreats and winter camps, as well.  Well, the camp director’s wife has a “part time” job with the USPS, but as recently been working full-time as her boss is dying of cancer.  So, I have been cooking meals for her so that she has less to worry about in the evenings when she finally gets home from work.  Simple, but yummy meals.  Last night we had Tacos!!  Oh, how I love Tacos!!

Tacos

What you need:

  • 2-3 lbs ground beef ( I used venison burger because I have a lot of it I have to use up)
  • 1-2 packages store bought taco seasoning (use your favorite brand and as much as you like)
  • flour or corn tortilla shells, whatever size you prefer ( if you are feeding 8, plan on using  at least 16)
  • hard shells if anyone likes them ( I LUV them)
  • your favorite salsa
  • lettuce
  • tomato
  • onion
  • sour cream
  • cheese (I use a taco blend, but whatever you like is fine)

You can omit any of the items above or substitute with others, make ‘em how you like ‘em!!

What to do:

  • brown your ground beef til no longer pink, drain excess fat, make taco meat according to package directions
  • either warm your soft shells in the microwave or “fry” them in oil or butter in a pan or on a griddle
  • put meat in center of taco shell
  • add your “toppings” of choice
  • roll up and eat!!  I don’t recommend rolling hard shells, it’s messy!! :)

Happy Eating, Be Blessed…
