Ingredients

1 tbsp (15 mL) oil, divided
8 oz. (225 g) lean ground beef
½ tbsp (7 mL) Everything Taco Seasoning
½ cup (125 mL) salsa, plus more for serving
12 flour or corn street taco size tortillas (4.5"/12 cm)
6 oz. (175 g) Monterey Jack cheese, grated (1½ cups/375 mL)
Optional: Sour cream or guacamole

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and spread 2 tsp (10 mL) of the oil on a sheet pan.
Heat the remaining 1 tsp (5 mL) of oil in a large skillet over medium-high for 2–3 minutes. Add the ground beef and cook, undisturbed, for 2–3 minutes. Break into crumbles with the Mix ‘N Chop®, then cook and stir until browned and no longer pink, about 8–10 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the seasoning and salsa. Simmer for 2–3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15–20 seconds. Lay them on a cutting board.
Sprinkle about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the cheese on one side of each tortilla. Place about 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the taco meat on each tortilla and top with the remaining cheese (about 1 tbsp/15 mL).
Fold the tortillas in half and place on the sheet pan. Press down firmly to help them stay closed.
Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and flip the tacos with a large spatula. Press down to help them stay sealed. Bake for another 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve the tacos with more salsa, sour cream, or guacamole, if you’d like.
