Tacos

Tacos sound so simple and family friendly, but we never ate them before going gluten free. 

Now they are a regular part of our diet.

• 1 pound hamburger or ground turkey
• gluten free taco seasoning
• taco shells (Mission are GF)
• shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 sliced tomatoes
• shredded lettuce
• chopped onions are optional
• sour cream (Tillamook is GF)
• salsa (Amy's Organic Salsa is GF) 

For the taco seasoning:  You can buy gluten free taco seasoning.  You can purchase Gluten Free Pantry Taco Seasoning at Glutenfree.com. 

You can also make your own:

TACO SEASONING:

• 1 T chili powder
• 2 t onion powder
• 1 t each of ground cumin, garlic powder, paprika, oregano and sugar
• 1/2 t salt

Mix all together.  Makes about 3 T.  Depending on your taste, this is enough for one pound of hamburger meat.  I make this recipe times six, store in a glass jar and then I have enough for a couple months.

FOR TACOS:

Brown meat and sprinkle with taco seasoning to taste.  My kids like their tacos pretty mild, so we do not use much.  Add 3/4 cup water. Stir and simmer 10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. 

Warm tacos shells in the microwave. Spoon in the meat and garnish with tomatoes, lettuce, onion, sour cream and/or salsa.
