Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1/2 c finely chopped onion
  • 1 envelope taco seasoning
  • 3/4 c water
  • 1-1/4 c shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 2 packages 1.9 oz each

Instructions
 

  • You’ll start this recipe by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
  • .Using a small skillet, add the beef and onions to the skillet and cook them until the meat shows no pink and breaks apart easily. You’ll drain the excess liquids.
  • At that point, you’ll be adding in the taco seasoning and water. Be sure to stir it in well and bring the water to a boil. Afterward, bring down the heat, let the mixture sit uncovered, and wait for 5 minutes.
  • Once you’re done waiting, remove the mixture from the skillet and add ½ cup of cheese.
  • For the tart shells, lay them in an ungreased baking pan, about 15 by 10 by 1 inch. You’ll add the taco mixture by laying it in the shells.
  • Bake these for 6 minutes and add however much cheese you’d like. Once the cheese is melted to your satisfaction it’s done.
  • Let the dish cool for a bit and serve!
