ingredients in taco bites

Ingredients in Taco Bites

  • Ground Beef- I like to use lean ground beef when baking this recipe. Look for 85% or 96% lean beef.
  • Refried Beans-just pick up a can of your favorite brand
  • Taco Seasoning-one packet of taco seasoning is all you will need to perfectly season this recipe
  • Scoop Tortilla Chips- I like to buy the Tostitos brand of scoop tortilla chips. The chips shaped like a tostada shell work the best for holding the meat mixture and make a perfect handheld snack.
  • Water

How to make Mini Taco Bites

In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown the ground beef until it is cooked through. Drain any excess liquid from the pan by moving the cooked meat to one side and slightly tilting the pan up to allow the liquid to flow to the opposite side of the pan. Use a spoon to scoop liquid out of the pan.

Add in the refried beans to the pan and keep the heat turned up to medium high. Stir the beans and meat together until the beans are heated through. Pour in the water and stir until the mixture has loosened up a bit.

Pour in the taco seasoning and stir to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for just a minute before removing from heat.
