  • Prep Time: 10 mins
  • Cook Time: 15 mins
  • Total Time: 25 mins

Yield: 9 tacos (about 3-4 people) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 white onion, diced
  • 1/2 zucchini, shredded
  • 1 lb ground beef (or sub chicken or turkey)
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons mustard 
  • 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 9 6-inch flour tortillas (gluten-free if needed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or grease it a little with olive oil)
  2. Warm up your olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in your diced onion and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until it gets a little soft and fragrant. Then add your shredded zucchini (yesss we’re sneaking veggies in here like the geniuses we are). Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add in your ground beef, turkey, or chicken — whatever you’re feeling! Break it up with a spatula and cook until fully browned and no longer pink. If there’s any extra grease, drain it out.
  4. Stir in the ketchup and mustard. It’s gonna smell INSANE. Give it a taste and add more ketchup or mustard if you’re feeling saucy.
  5. Warm your tortillas (VERY important!). Listen up because this part is everything: you have to warm your tortillas a little so they don’t crack when you fold them. I usually warm in microwave for 30 seconds (I do about 4 at a time). Keep them in between damp paper towels to stay nice and pliable!
  6. Fill each tortilla with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the beef mixture. Sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded cheddar on top. Fold the tortilla over the filling and place it seam-side down on your baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of your tortillas!
  7. Brush or spray the outsides of your tacos with a little olive oil (this helps them get crispy and golden and PERFECT).
  8. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until they’re looking crispy, cheesy, and completely irresistible.

Notes

*Store leftovers in fridge for 3 days. Reheat in skillet or in oven.
