Cheeseburger Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef with black pepper, salt, and garlic powder in the hot skillet until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Reduce heat to low and mix 1/2 cup ketchup into beef.
• Lay a tortilla onto a work surface and place about 1/3 cup beef mixture and 1/4 cup shredded cheese onto tortilla in a line down the center. Roll tortilla over meat and cheese, fold in top and bottom to enclose filling, and finish rolling into a burrito shape. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Place filled tortillas into prepared baking sheet and sprinkle remaining Mexican cheese blend on top. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dish is heated through and cheese topping has melted, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir sour cream with 1/3 cup ketchup in a bowl and top each serving with the sour cream sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir until well mixed.
• Divide the ground beef into 4 equal sections, about 6 ounces each. Gently form the meat into thick disks, then place on a piece of wax paper. Press the patties until they're about 1/2-inch thick and 6 inches in diameter. Sprinkle each patty on both sides with the spice mix, using about 1/2 tablespoon per burger. Cut each patty in half, giving you 8 pieces.
• Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. When the skillet is hot, add 1 tablespoon of the oil and 4 of the patties. Cook until the meat is browned half of the way up the side, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side. Place a half-slice of cheese (torn into a few pieces so it fits on the burger) to cover the patty and melt over the top. Cook until the patty is well-browned on the bottom, another 2 1/2 minutes. Remove the burgers to a plate, tent with foil, to allow the juices to redistribute, at least 5 minutes. Scrape out any crusty bits on the bottom of the skillet and pour off the extra grease. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and repeat the process for the remaining 4 patties.
• If using hard taco shells, place them on a baking sheet and warm in the oven for about 5 minutes. If using soft tortillas, wrap the stack of 8 in foil and warm for 5 minutes.
• Line the center of each taco with some lettuce, insert a patty and 2 tomato slices, then top with 1 teaspoon salsa and some sour cream, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Line each tack shell with 1 slice of cheese.
• Arrange taco shells on an ungreased cookie sheet (cheese will fall to one side).
• Bake 5 to 7 minutes or until cheese is melted.
• Meanwhile, in a 8 inch skillet, cook beef over medium high heat until done.
• Drain well and return to skillet.
• Stir in cheese dip and cook until heated through.
• To serve: spoon about 2 tablespoons beef mixture into each taco shell.
• Top each with lettuce and tomato.
• Serve with salsa.
• Don't forget the pickles for those diehard cheeseburger fans!
