Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bread slices (sourdough or your choice)
- 250 grams Ground beef or turkey
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 100 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Lettuce (shredded)
- 1 large Tomato (diced)
- 4 tablespoons Sour cream
- 2 teaspoons Hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for toasting bread)
Directions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook, breaking it into crumbles with a spatula, until fully browned (about 6-8 minutes).
Step 2
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked meat and stir well to coat. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, then remove the meat from heat and set aside.
Step 3
While the meat cooks, spread butter evenly on one side of each bread slice. Heat another skillet or griddle over medium heat and toast the bread, butter-side down, until golden and crispy (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 4
Place the toasted bread slices on a plate, toasted side up. Evenly distribute the cooked taco meat over the slices.
Step 5
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the taco meat. Optionally, you can place the toast under a broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese, if desired.
Step 6
Top each piece of toast with shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes for a fresh crunch.
Step 7
Finish each taco toast with a dollop of sour cream and a drizzle of hot sauce, if you like some extra heat.
Step 8
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious Taco Toast!
