Loaded Cheesy Pocket Tacos Recipe
Ingredients:
8 small flour tortillas
1 lb (450g) ground beef
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese blend)
1/2 cup diced onions
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, salsa, chopped tomatoes, lettuce
Instructions:
Cook the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with diced onions, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess fat.
Assemble the pockets: Lay a tortilla flat, add a few tablespoons of the beef mixture and a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla into a half-moon or pocket shape.
Cook the pockets: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each pocket 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese melts.
Serve: Top with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or any favorite toppings. Serve hot.
Tips:
For extra crispiness, brush the outside lightly with oil or butter before cooking.
Customize with beans, corn, or peppers inside the pockets.
These loaded cheesy pocket tacos are quick, cheesy, and perfect for snacks, lunches, or family dinners.
