Here’s a tasty and easy recipe for Cheesy Rotel Tacos, perfect for Taco Tuesday! 🌮🌮🌮
Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 can (10 oz) Rotel diced tomatoes & green chilies
- 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade: 1 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp paprika, salt & pepper to taste)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or Mexican blend)
- 8–10 small taco shells or tortillas
- Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, sliced jalapeños, guacamole
Instructions:
- Cook the meat:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess grease. - Add Rotel & seasoning:
Stir in the Rotel and taco seasoning. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until heated through and slightly thickened. - Add cheese:
Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese until melted and creamy. - Assemble tacos:
Spoon the cheesy Rotel mixture into taco shells. Top with your favorite toppings. - Serve:
Serve warm with extra cheese or a squeeze of lime if desired.
✅ Tips:
- For a quicker version, use pre-cooked taco meat from the store.
- Add black beans or corn for extra texture and flavor.
- Make it a skillet dinner by serving it over rice or tortilla chips for a taco casserole twist.
If you want, I can also create a super cheesy, ooey-gooey version that’s perfect for sharing with family and friends—it’s basically a Rotel dip in taco form! Do you want me to do that?
