About the Recipe

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

1 tbsp.

extra-virgin olive oil

3/4 lb.

ground beef

1

medium onion, chopped

1

(1-oz.) packet taco seasoning

4

large, ripe beefsteak tomatoes

1/2 c.

shredded Mexican cheese blend

1/2 c.

shredded iceberg lettuce

1/4 c.

sour cream

Preparation

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook, stirring, until soft, 5 minutes. Add ground beef and taco seasoning. Cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 8 minutes. Drain fat.

  2. Flip over tomatoes so they’re stem-side down and slice to make 6 wedges, being careful not to cut all the way through. Carefully spread open wedges.

  3. Divide taco meat among tomatoes, then top each with cheese, lettuce, and sour cream before serving.
