Learn how to make taco meat to tuck away in your freezer for those nights you don't want to cook! I will show you how to make taco seasoning at home, that will flavor your meat to perfection!
Cook the ground meat on medium heat in a large pot with a lid. Every 5-10 min stir the meat and mash it up. I use a potato masher for this and it worked really well. Once all the meat is browned add the seasonings. Stir until well mixed. If you are using some immediately go ahead and have dinner.
Cool the remaining meat to room temperature and divide into freezer safe bags or containers. I freeze in one pound portions. That is enough for my family of 6 for dinner because we use tons of taco toppings like avocado, salsa, sour cream. and cheddar on taco night. Freeze until needed.
How to Make Taco Seasoning:
Mix together all the seasonings. Use 2 tablespoons for every one pound of meat. Add more to taste. If you like your tacos spicy add more crushed red pepper.
