Beef Meximelt Cheesy Tacos are a fast, flavorful dinner made with seasoned ground beef, melted cheese, and fresh pico de gallo wrapped in soft flour tortillas. This quick and easy 20-minute recipe brings nostalgic fast-food comfort to your kitchen using fresh, better-for-you ingredients the whole family will love.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 cup pico de gallo salsa

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef, breaking it into crumbles until fully browned.
  2. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Mash the beef to incorporate flavors, then simmer 5–10 minutes until thickened.
  3. Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15–20 seconds until warm and pliable.
  4. Spoon beef onto each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and add pico de gallo. Roll tightly, tucking in the ends.
  5. Wrap each rolled taco in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds to melt cheese and steam the tortilla.
  6. Serve immediately while gooey and warm.

Notes

  • Meat swaps: Use ground turkey or plant-based crumbles for a lighter or vegetarian version.
  • Cheese varieties: Try cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.
  • Add-ins: Beans, jalapeños, or avocado make great additions.
  • Make-ahead tip: Prepare beef ahead and store separately; assemble just before serving.
  • Soft tortillas: Always warm tortillas to prevent cracking while rolling.
