Tips and Tricks
Chopping Vegetables
For uniform cooking, chop the green bell pepper and onion into similar-sized pieces. This ensures they all cook evenly in the skillet.
Minced Garlic
To easily mince garlic, use the flat side of a chef’s knife to smash the clove before chopping. This helps remove the skin and makes it easier to chop finely.
Browning Ground Beef
Break up the ground beef into small pieces while browning it. This ensures even cooking and makes it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
Taco Seasoning
When adding the taco seasoning and water to the skillet, stir well to evenly distribute the seasoning. Let it simmer to enhance the flavors.
Assembling Tortillas
To prevent the tortillas from cracking when rolling, warm them slightly in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds. This makes them more pliable and easier to roll.
Mixing Soup and Milk
When combining the cream of mushroom soup with the milk, whisk until smooth to avoid any lumps. This creates a creamy sauce to drizzle over the tortillas.
Baking
Keep an eye on the baking time to avoid over-baking. The tortillas should be heated through, and the cheese melted, but not dry.
Serving
For a fresher taste, chop the tomato and shred the lettuce right before serving. This keeps the toppings crisp and vibrant.
Sour Cream
For a smoother texture, let the sour cream come to room temperature before serving. This makes it easier to spread on the tacos.
