20-Minute Ground Beef for Tacos

1. 1

   Note: I typically dont add the jalapeno pepper to my taco meat as my kids find it too spicy, but I prefer it with the added heat.

2. 2

   Without the seeds, it really doesnt make it too spicy, unless your family dislikes spicy food as much as my kids do!

3. 3

   The prepared taco meat also freezes very well if you want to double or triple the recipe and then freeze it in smaller portions in ziplock bags.

4. 4

   In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat.

5. 5

   Add chopped onion and saute for 1-2 minutes until softened.

6. 6

   Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up and stirring until it is cooked through, about 56 minutes, and then drain the grease.

7. 7

   Stir in garlic, jalapeno pepper (if using), chili powder, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper and cook for another 30 seconds.

8. 8

   Add tomato sauce, lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

   Serve with whatever taco fixings your family likes!
