Taco Joes

If you like Sloppy Joes and plenty of spice, you’ll want to try Taco Joes. The spicy ground beef has the heat turned up with the addition of salsa. And it’s served in taco shells, of course!

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

It’s easy to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. If you don’t have a nonstick skillet, you may want to spray your skillet with cooking spray before cooking the ground turkey.

If crisp taco shells aren't your style, make a "wrap." Place the filling in the center of a soft flour tortilla, and roll it up!
