Taco bell Meat Copycat





1lb ground beef
1/4 cup flour
1 T chili powder
1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp dried minced onion
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp onion powder
dash garlic powder
1/2 cup water

1.In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef with the flour, chili powder, salt, minced onion, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder. Use your hands to thoroughly mix the ingredients into the ground beef.
2.Add the seasoned beef mixture to the water in a skillet over medium heat. Mix well with a wooden spoon or spatula, and break up the meat as it cooks. Heat for 5-6 minutes, or until browned. The finished product should be very smooth, somewhat pasty, with no large chunks of beef remaining.

* I thought that this was good it had a different texture to it with the flour in it but I thought that the flavor was pretty good. As far as how it compares to taco bell I dont eat there enough to be able to compare it so im not really sure but it was still a good change from the same old taco meat.

  1. This is a very very good recipe. It reminds me of taco John's.

    It's nice because you can smooth the meat over the entire side of the taco shell so that everybody has meat and you can layer things inside the taco just right.

  2. I really enjoyed the simplicity and taste. Seems like a really versatile recipe. I used it as meat for Coney dogs too.
