Stretched Out Taco Meat Recipe


Stretched Out Taco Meat Recipe
This is a great way to make tacos for a family on a budget because it allows you to make twice as much taco filling with the same amount of meat. Leftovers reheat well and can be used for taco salad or nachos. My family and I particularly love them... More

Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • scant 1/3 c of taco seasoning (or a single packet, plus a bit, if you can - but I have a bulk container from Costco)
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles
  • 1 can black beans, drained
  • water

Directions
  1. Brown the ground beef over medium.
  2. Meanwhile, strain the black beans and set aside.
  3. Rinse the strainer, and then strain the tomatoes over a measuring cup so you don't lose all the tomato liquid.
  4. Top off the measuring cup with water until you have about 7 oz.
  5. Mix tomatoes, water/tomato juice mix, beans, and seasoning into the beef and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until thickened.
