Equipment
- Taco Rack
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 flour tortillas fajita size
Suggested Toppings:
- Ketchup
- Mustard
- Mayonnaise
- Shredded lettuce
- Relish or Chopped Pickles
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain off excess fat and return the beef to the skillet.
- Add garlic powder, onion powder, and shredded cheddar cheese to the cooked beef. Stir until the cheese is fully melted.
- Distribute the flavorful beef mixture into the flour tortillas and garnish with your desired toppings.
- Serve the cheeseburger tacos immediately, with extra toppings on the side for customization. Enjoy this quick and delicious twist on traditional tacos!
Notes
- Be sure to drain off any excess grease after cooking the ground beef. This is especially important if using beef with more fat.
- Be cautious adding salt. I purposefully eliminated the salt from this recipe because I found the cheese added salt and so more wasn't necessary. If you decide to add some be sure to taste first and add in small increments.
- Use dried seasonings to give a more “cheeseburger-like flavor” since this is how burgers are seasoned.
