Cooking Instructions:

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.

Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the meat, then pour in the water. Stir to combine and let it simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.

While the beef is cooking, warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until they're pliable.

Assemble the tacos by placing a generous amount of the seasoned beef mixture onto each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and cheese. Add sour cream and salsa if desired.

For best results, consider preparing your toppings in advance and setting up a taco bar.

This allows everyone to build their own tacos to their liking, making for a more interactive and enjoyable meal.

Additionally, feel free to experiment with different toppings like avocado, jalapeños, or black beans for added flavor and texture.
