I love that the salad can be customised to my family’s tastes and/or what is in season and the flavour is unlike any store-bought taco seasoning I’ve tried (and without the additives!) A dollop of sour cream or sriracha mayo is also a must! The added bonus is that the beef filling can be frozen, so you can make a double batch and have it ready for a rainy day. These Beef Tacos are the perfect quick and easy weeknight dinner to add to your next meal plan.

What are some topping ideas for beef tacos?
The options really are limitless! I’ve used shredded cheese, avocado, shredded red cabbage, diced tomatoes, coriander/cilantro, jalapeno and sriracha mayonnaise in the recipe, but these are some other delicious ideas that allow you to customise the tacos to suit your family’s tastes: Shredded lettuce, crumbled feta cheese, guacamole, diced red onions, roasted vegetables (like zucchini or capsicum/bell pepper), black beans and corn. 5 from 1 review
