Skillet Tacos from Real Mom Kitchen

So a while ago, Jolene told me about Real Mom Kitchen (www.realmomkitchen.com). Laura Whittemore, the Real Mom, runs a great website. Her recipes are simple, delicious, and easy to make. I've made probably half a dozen of her recipes and found nary a dud so far. My whole family really liked her Skillet Tacos which we had for lunch yesterday and today. You could substitute chicken, pork, or shrimp for the ground beef, and the recipe would turn out just fine. I used canned corn instead of frozen corn because I didn't have frozen corn. I think the recipe still worked great. Thanks Jolene for turning me onto Real Mom Kitchen.

Bon Appetit!

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 10 corn tortillas (6 inches), cut into 1-inch pieces (I use my pizza cutter to do this)
  • 1 bottle (8 ounces) taco sauce (I used mild)
  • 1-1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
  2. Rinse frozen corn in a colander with warm water and drain.
  3. Add the drained corn, taco sauce, and 1 cup cheese to meat until well mixed.
  4. Mix in tortilla pieces and heat through.
  5. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serves 5-6
