Mexican Taco Potato Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pierce the skin of the potatoes with a fork. Place potatoes on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until soft, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Mix ground beef with onion, garlic, salt, chili powder, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Cook in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbled, about 10 minutes. Add water as needed to prevent beef from sticking to skillet. Drain and discard grease.
• Cut baked potatoes open. Spread butter inside and top each with the taco meat mixture, 1/4 cup cheese, 2 tablespoons sour cream, and 2 tablespoons salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Cook ground beef and onions in a skillet over medium heat until beef is browned, 7 to 10 minutes; drain grease. Stir in water and taco seasoning; cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add refried beans, salsa, olives, and green chiles. Cook and stir over low heat until ingredients are warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Place half of the taco shells in the bottom of the baking dish. Pour in half of the ground beef mixture; sprinkle with half of the Cheddar cheese. Repeat with remaining taco shells, ground beef mixture, and Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Brown the ground beef in large skillet.
• Add 1 cup water and taco seasoning to beef and let simmer until all liquid is evaporated.
• While meat is simmering, in a medium saucepan add oil onions and garlic. Cook until onions are somewhat tender. Add the cheddar cheese soup and the milk.
• Stir until smooth.
• Once the meat and sauce are cooked add both to a large bowl with the bagged hashbrowns. Mix ingredients well. If mixture seems dry add a little more milk.
• Add mixture to a greased 9x13 baking dish, cover with aluminum foil and place in 375 degree oven. Bake for 45 minutes. Take the foil off and sprinkle with cheese. Place back in oven for 15-20 minutes more until cheese is melted and nicely browned. Serve with sour cream, salsa and hot sauce.
