Hey, hey Monday!! We came off a full week wrapping up the kids’ Winter sports seasons. This week they are off from school and sports and looking forward to a chill week with no schedules!
After this week we will be back into school and practices and need a meal idea that comes together quickly. I saw Happy Healthy Sarah on Instagram share a picture of this for her family dinner one night and I was inspired to create something similar!
I feel funny calling it a “recipe” because it’s pretty simple with minimum cooking needed. Here’s what you will need.
One pound of ground chicken
1 packet taco seasoning (I prefer Siete)
1 can refried black beans (again- Siete)
Tortillas (Siete for the win again!)
Assorted taco toppings- cheese, sour cream, olives, jalapeño, tomatoes, cilantro- what ever you love on your tacos!
Preheat oven to 375.
Brown your chicken in a pan and when cooked through add your seasoning per packet instructions.
While the chicken is browning, warm the beans just to make them easier to spread. Lay your tortillas on a baking sheet and spread about 1/4 cup of beans on each tortilla. I did sort of eyeball this recipe and it made about 6 pizzas.
Once the chicken is cooked and seasoned, add about 1/3 cup on top of the beans and sprinkle with your choice of cheese. Side note, if you are not using the pre-cut parchment paper for cooking you are missing out. No tearing, they just lay right on your baking sheet and make clean up a breeze. I use them almost daily!
Pull them out of the oven and top with your favorite taco toppings! You can slice into 4 slices with a pizza cutter or eat it with a fork and knife.
You can also easily swap out the ground chicken for ground beef or turkey or make it even easier with some rotisserie chicken tossed with salsa.
It’s a different spin on taco night and was a winner in our house!
Let me know if you try this out! I’ll see you back here on Wednesday, where there’s always room for one more at our family table.
