Easy and Delicious Family Tacos!

These tacos are so good and so simple that they are gone within minutes! They are not Mexican style tacos, they are more of a snack that do not have any spice but plenty of juiciness! My family has been making these for quiet a few years and we all love it!



Prep time: 40 minutes               Cook  time: 3 minutes


You need:
  1. Large Flour Tortillas, 8-10 Count. You can use whole wheat or flour.
  2. 1 pound of ground meat, I like to use ground turkey for extra moistness.
  3. I medium onion chopped into small pieces.
  4. Mayonnaise for spread.
  5. Shredded cabbage or lettuce, whatever you prefer.
  6. 1 large red pepper, chopped into small pieces.
  7. Mozzarella or montery jack cheese, shredded.
  8. Some toothpicks to hold taco together. 

Directions:
  1. Fry the ground meat in a pan with oil, salt, and pepper until brown. Add the chopped onion and saute for another three minutes. Transfer to some paper towels to cool and drain the oil.
  2. While the meat is cooling, spread a layer of mayo on the tortillas.
  3. Add the meat mixture, lettuce or cabbage, pepper, and cheese on top. close the two flaps of the tortilla and hold together with toothpicks is necessary.
  4. Store in the refrigerator with plastic wrap over them. When you're ready to make some, add a small drop of oil to a pan and fry on both sides until brown. You can also cut up in pieces and stick a toothpick in for a great appetizer with a ranch or salsa dip.  But I love to eat them whole! :) Enjoy!
