ingredients

Taco meat
- 907.18 g ground beef (we buy a local grass fed beef or buffalo but ground turkey is good, too)

- 9.85 ml minced garlic
- chili sauce, 8 to 12 ounces (read recipe introduction)
- 236.59 ml cranberry sauce
- 4.92-9.85 ml salt-free taco seasoning mix, to taste
- 12 flour tortillas (for fun I used mini taco shells) or 12 corn taco shells (for fun I used mini taco shells)
-
Toppings or fixings
- shredded cheddar cheese, fresh cilantro, shredded lettuce, crema mexicana (can substitute other cheese varieties ( queso fresco, cotija, etc.) or sour cream
directions
- Note: I make my own cranberry sauce and freeze for later use in recipes. Or, if you have any leftovers from the Holidays, that works out conveniently, too. I recommend this basic recipe: Recipe #188835.
- Cook beef, onion and garlic in large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes or until beef is cooked through and vegetables are softened; drain.
- Stir chili sauce, cranberry sauce and seasoning mix into beef mixture.
- Reduce heat. Cook for 10 minutes or until flavors are blended. Do not allow mixture to dry out, adding a little bit of water if necessary.
- Divide beef mixture evenly among taco shells.
- Top with cheese, tomato, lettuce and sour cream-any or all of your favorite taco garnishes.
