Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 1 can rotel tomatoes with juices 10 ounces
  • 8 ounces Velveeta ½ block
  • 10 nacho cheese taco shells
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • Cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Add the beef and taco seasoning to a skillet and cook until fully browned. Break it up into small pieces as the beef cooks. I did not drain the fat of my beef as I used a lean ratio of 97/3. I you want you can drain some fat of.
  • In a sauce pan, over medium heat add the Velveeta and Ro*Tel® tomatoes with its juices. Cook until the cheese melts for about 10 minutes
  • Add a layer of lettuce to the taco shell, add a couple of spoonfuls of beef and top with the Velveeta sauce. Top with sour cream, cilantro and your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • I used 97/3 ratio lean beef so I didn't drain any fat. If you use a higher fat ratio beef you can drain some of the fat after cooking.
