Make your Beef Taco Mix. Then mix up and make your Homemade Tortillas. Of course you can just substitute store bought tortillas, but these hand-made ones are really easy and yummy.
-Enjoy!
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Stir in water and oil. Turn onto a floured surface; knead for a couple minutes. Divide dough into 8 portions. On a lightly floured surface roll each portion into a 7 inch circle.
In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook tortillas over med-high (almost high) heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.
-This would work really well to make wheat tortillas too. Just add 1/2 what flour and 1/2 white.
These were really yummy!
Mix all ingredients together. This recipe is for 1 lb of hamburger.
Brown hamburger. Mix seasoning and 1/2 cup water with the hamburger and simmer for 10 minutes.
~ I love this recipe. I find the store mixes to salty, so this is a great substitute. I do omit the oregano because my husband is allergic and it's still great!
Spray 9x13 inch pan with non stick spray. Brown hamburger, add onion and cook until onion is translucent. Place half the tortillas in bottom of pan, spread to fit as well as possible. Add drained hamburger and spread evenly. Pour undrained beans evenly over hamburger and add sliced or grated cheese over beans.
Place remainder of the tortillas over the cheese. Mix the tomatoes, chicken soup, salsa and pour evenly over tortillas.
