Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1.Sauté Onion and Brown Beef

    In a large pan, sauté the diced onion until fragrant. Add the ground beef and brown it, breaking it apart with a spatula until fully cooked.

  2. 2.Drain Grease and Season Beef

    Once the beef is browned, use a paper towel to dab up and remove any excess grease from the pan. Add the salt, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder to the beef and onion mixture, mixing well to combine.

  3. 3.Add Enchilada Sauce

    Pour about 1/2 cup of Siete Red Enchilada Sauce (or crushed tomatoes) into the seasoned beef mixture. Stir everything together until well combined, then set the beef mixture aside.

  4. 4.Prepare Tortillas

    Microwave corn tortillas wrapped in damp paper towels for about 30 seconds to soften them. This makes them pliable and easier to fold. Lay the softened tortillas on a parchment-lined baking sheet and spray both sides with avocado oil.

  5. 5.Assemble Tacos

    Sprinkle shredded cheese onto one half of each tortilla. Then, spoon a generous amount of the ground beef mixture over the cheese. Gently fold each tortilla in half, pressing down lightly to secure the filling.

  6. 6.Bake Tacos

    Bake the assembled tacos in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  7. 7.Prepare Creamy Cilantro Avocado Dipping Sauce

    While the tacos are baking, combine a handful of cilantro, one avocado, 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt, the juice from one lime, a drizzle of honey, and salt and pepper to taste in a food processor or blender.

  8. 8.Blend Sauce and Serve

    Blend the sauce ingredients until smooth and creamy. Serve the crispy ground beef tacos hot with the freshly made creamy cilantro avocado dipping sauce.
