Ingredients
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup, shredded Iceberg lettuce
- 1 medium, diced Tomato
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 sliced Jalapeño (optional)
- 1 medium, sliced Avocado
- 0.25 cup, chopped Cilantro
- 1 quartered Lime
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Scoop 1/4 cup portions of shredded cheddar cheese onto the baking sheet, spreading each into a thin circle. Ensure the circles are spaced apart sufficiently.
Step 3
Bake the cheese in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let them cool for about 1 minute.
Step 4
Carefully lay each cheese circle over the handle of a wooden spoon to form a taco shell shape. Allow them to cool completely until they hold their shape.
Step 5
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked, about 7 to 8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Step 6
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 3 minutes until the onion softens.
Step 7
Stir in chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the spices coat the beef well.
Step 8
Assemble the tacos by filling each cheese shell with the beef mixture.
Step 9
Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, a dollop of sour cream, sliced jalapeño, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro as desired.
Step 10
Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
