* My Taco Recipe *

Taco Filling

1 lb of ground beef or ground turkey
2 fire roasted green chilies <or if you're lazy you can just buy 1 can>
3 cloves of garlic
1 lime
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of ground mexican chili or chili powder
1/4 cup of red wine
1 chopped onion
1 chopped tomato
1 cup of grated cheese...monterery jack or white cheddar

Cook ground beef or turkey and add the green chilies, garlic, cilantro, salt, chili powder and wine. Allow to simmer for 15-20 mins.

Corn Tortillas

I haven't ever really made these successfully on my own... so just buy them.

Use about 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a sautee' pan. Heat on medium and when it starts to sizzle throw in a tortilla. Cook only for about 1-2 mins.

Adding the Filling

When the tortilla is done, place on a plate and add about 2 tablespoons of filling, add cheese, chopped onion, tomato and cilantro to garnish. You can also add your favorite salsa!

It's always nice to have refried beans and spanish rice on the side..but those recipes will come later;-)
