Enjoy these gluten-free ground beef tacos. With the addition of some taco seasoning, tomato sauce, and grain-free taco shells you have a quick and easy weeknight meal that kids and adults will request again and again. Ready in 20 minutes!
Measure out the taco seasoning ingredients into a bog bowl and whisk together until evenly combined.
Over medium-high heat, brown the meat, breaking it into small pieces as you go. Season with a little salt and freshly ground pepper. When the meat is no longer pink, push all the meat to one side of the pan and slightly tilt the pan. Scoop out most of the drippings with a big spoon.
Mix 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning or 1 store-bought packet with ½ cup of tomato sauce and ¼ cup of water. Add to meat. Cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the meat from the pan or place the skillet on a cool burner top until ready to serve.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes and drop in the tortilla, in 10 seconds or so, the bottom of the tortilla will crisp. Flip and heat the other side for another 10 seconds. and you're ready to go.
Fill each tortilla with ground beef and your favorite toppings.
Notes
Please note: The toppings are not included in the nutrition facts.TOMATO SAUCE is sold in a can or carton next to the tomato sauce. Most tacos are made with just water to moisten the meat, but if you add tomato sauce, the meat has a wonderful flavor and is very moist. I use Pomi tomato sauce, which is made with Italian tomatoes. It has no added sodium and has no preservatives. It is available at Publix here in Key Largo.For the tortillas, we prefer Maria and Ricardo's Paleo Certified Almond Flour Tortillas and Siete Tortillas. They are both gluten-free and Project Non-GMO verified.
