How to Make Creole Tacos

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb of ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Stir in 6 oz of Creole seasoning blend (or your homemade blend).
  3. In a small bowl, dissolve 2 beef bouillon cubes in 1/2 cup of warm water in the microwave. Slowly add the 1 tsp of cumin and stir until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  4. Add the bouillon mixture to the ground meat. Simmer until the meat is slightly wet and the flavors have melded (about 5 minutes).
  5. Reduce heat to low and keep the meat warm.
  6. Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C). Place taco shells in the oven for 2 minutes to warm them.
  7. Fill each taco shell about halfway with the Creole seasoned meat.
  8. Drizzle 1-2 tsp of your favorite salsa over the meat. Sprinkle lightly with grated green bell pepper, add shredded lettuce, cheese, and diced tomato.
  9. Serve immediately with napkins! Enjoy your delicious and messy Creole Tacos!
