How to make Oven Baked Beef Tacos:

This is a very easy recipe to make. You’ll need to look for the “stand up” taco shells at your market. If you can’t find the exact shells mentioned in the recipe, it’s okay to substitute regular shells. The stand-up shells make the tacos easier to fill, but if you use regular shells then you can just snuggle them side-by-side instead and they’ll stand up well enough.

Taco meat:

You’ll make the taco meat (easy). Use ground beef. And you could use ground turkey in place of ground beef if you don’t wish to use beef (or if you can’t find it). You can use an envelope of taco seasoning for these Oven Baked Beef Tacos, or you can follow directions in the recipe to make your own taco seasoning. Sometimes I like to add a can of chili beans to my taco meat to add a little more bulk and flavor to the filling. It’s up to you! The taco shells are set inside a 9×13-inch pan. Cheese is sprinkled into each shell and then taco meat is spooned on top.

More cheese is added on top of the taco meat.

And then you’ll bake the tacos. That’s it!  These Oven Baked Beef Tacos are such an easy, no-fuss dinner recipe to make, right? We all need recipes like this right now!

Add whatever toppings you’d like for your tacos. I suggest topping them with chopped iceberg lettuce and chopped tomatoes. Add a little taco sauce or salsa too. And guacamole and sour cream are great additions too. Enjoy!
