Instructions

For the Taco Meat:

Step 1

Combine the onion and ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook, until ground beef is cooked through and crumbled. Drain any excess fat and return skillet to stove top.

Step 2

Add in the tomato sauce and taco seasonings and stir over medium-low heat. Let the mixture simmer, until the sauce is thickened and flavors have had a chance to enhance, about 5 to 7 minutes.
