Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 1/2 Onion (diced)
- 2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup Water
- 2 cups Mexican Shredded Cheese Blend
- 12 Corn Tortillas

- Spoon the taco meat onto each tortilla and top with the shredded cheese.
- Fold each of the corn tortillas in half.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a clean skillet over medium high heat.
