There is only a handful of ingredients you need to prepare this dish, making it a great meal to prepare for when you have company!

How to Prepare these Tasty Ground Beef Tacos
This 25-minute meal is one of my favorites to make when we have visitors. I’ll make a taco bar, adding a variety of different toppings included above, which then allows our guests to individualize their tacos towards their liking. I’ll also pair this meal with some margaritas 😏
To make the tastiest tacos, follow these steps:
- In a large skillet, drizzle the avocado oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef.
- Break up the ground beef while cooking until browned. Drain the grease.
- Add the homemade taco seasoning mix and water, mixing well. Allow the water to simmer for a few minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
- While the beef is cooking, chop the peppers and place within an oiled skillet over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until the veggies are soft.
- Warm your tortillas. Then fill them with the taco meat and add desired toppings. Enjoy!
