We love to make these tacos in our pie irons over the open fire when we are camping. I think they are better than real tacos!

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
12 (5 inch) corn tortillas
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
½ cup chopped onion
2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
1 large tomato, diced
1 (8 ounce) jar salsa
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream (Optional)

Directions

Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring to crumble, until browned. Pour off excess fat, and mix in the taco seasoning according to package directions.
Spray the inside of a pie iron with cooking spray, and place a corn tortilla on one side. Place a scoop of ground beef on top of the tortilla, sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese, and chopped onion. Finally, place another tortilla on top, and close the pie iron.
Cook the taco over the moderate coals of a campfire until the tortillas have crisped and browned, and the taco is hot in the center. Serve with lettuce, tomato, salsa, and sour cream. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
