Put your kids to work—mine love to sprinkle the tacos with the toppings before serving. My spouse prefers burritos to tacos, so he gets his in a flour tortilla instead. (from Real Simple)
1 1/2 lbs ground beef or ground turkey
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup jarred salsa; I'm a big fan of Green Mountain Gringo
kosher salt or Lawry's seasoned salt
8 taco shells
diced avocado
chopped cilantro
shredded cheese
sour cream
extra salsa
chopped cherry tomatoes
sliced olives
shredded lettuce
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add meat and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes, then drain if necessary. Stir in cumin, salsa, and 3/4 teaspoon salt and simmer for a few more minutes. Fill taco shells with mixture and your preferred toppings. Fast!
*I like to add lots of shredded lettuce to mine which kind of makes it like taco salad. I also create "pink sauce" by mixing sour cream and salsa and drizzle it over the top. Sometimes I use a can of black beans in place of half the ground beef to make it healthier. Adapt as you will...
