Ground Beef Hard Shell Tacos (Gluten-Free)
Seasoned ground beef browned with onion, garlic, chili powder and cumin, then spooned into crisp corn taco shells. Topped with shredded cheddar, lettuce, tomato and a squeeze of lime. A gluten-free take on the classic hard shell taco, seasoned from scratch rather than a wheat-thickened packet mix.
