Cheesy One Pan Tacos Recipe

Cheesy One Pan Tacos Recipe

So picture this: a one pan dish that combines all the elements of tacos, but without the mess of chopping up salad ingredients and having the tacos break and fall apart and the fighting over who gets the last taco shell — or is that just my family?

Maybe your family eats tacos in a more civilised manner than mine do, but I’m sure you’ll all love this meal anyway! It’s kinda like nachos, but not really. It’s one pan tacos!

This family favourite is super quick and easy to throw together too. Kids absolutely love this stuff.

Here’s what you’ll need to make it!

Just normal taco stuff! You’ll need some beef mince, taco seasoning, an onion, red capsicum, a small tin of corn kernels, big tins of chopped tomatoes and red kidney beans, a nice packet of corn chips (from the taco section, not Doritos, although they’d work too), some grated cheese and shallots to serve.

Brown the mince and chopped onion and then add the taco seasoning and water as per packet directions. Stir through the diced capsicum, tomatoes, corn and beans, then allow to simmer for a few minutes. It will look like this:

It’s looking great already!

Now comes the hard part. You have to squish that packet of corn chips to break them into smaller pieces. Don’t go too hard, you don’t want crumbs, you want smaller chunks. Actually, that wasn’t very hard at all, was it? Told you this recipe was easy!!

Stir through the corn chips and grated cheese, top with shallots and serve immediately.

One pan to cook it all in and one bowl and fork for each person means very little washing up. And that’s a meal that makes everyone happy!

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
