Beef Tacos

Tacos for dinner? Why not? It is a great way to bring fun in the dining table and deviate from the usual dinners.

This is so easy and fast to make. You only need to cook the beef which will take you less than 10 minutes. Serve the beef mixture and toppings in separate bowls and let everyone build their own tacos.

INGREDIENTS :
1 lb ground sirloin beef (I use 90%lean/10% fat)
12 jumbo taco shells (corn tortillas can also be used)
1 tbs olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
3 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp pepper
2 roma tomatoes, chopped
shredded lettuce (I recommend using the pre-shredded ones.It will save you the trouble of slicing, rinsing and drying it)
1- 8oz light sour cream
salsa
cheddar cheese, grated
canned refried beans as a side dish (optional)
avocados, diced (optional...sprinkle with lime or lemon immediately after cutting to prevent discoloration)

1. Heat oil in medium high heat. Saute onion until it becomes translucent. Add beef and cook until no longer pink.
2. Sprinkle with oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Stir.
3. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate. Cover plate with aluminum foil to keep it warm.
4. Warm taco shells or flour tortilla according to package direction.
5. Place the rest of the ingredients in separate bowls and lay them on the table.
6. Let everyone have fun in building their own tacos.
7. Serve with refried beans on the side, if desired.
