SHEET PAN TACOS FOR MY FAMILY OF 14

ground beef

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: canned lentils

Ground turkey reduces fat while lentils are budget-friendly.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream alternative

Greek yogurt is lower in fat and high in protein.

jalapeños

🥗Healthier: banana peppers

💰Cheaper: bell peppers

Banana peppers offer mild heat, while bell peppers are more affordable.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cook 6 pounds of ground beef in a pan.

Add Danos hot chipotle seasoning to the ground beef as a substitute for taco seasoning.

Chop onions to add to the ground beef.

Brush a 21 by 15 inch sheet pan with canola oil using a baster brush.

Layer tortillas on the bottom of the sheet pan, ensuring they hang over the edges.

Drain the cooked ground beef if desired, then layer it on top of the tortillas.

Cover the meat with another layer of tortillas (about 6).

Brush more canola oil on top of the tortillas.

Place another pan of the same size on top to compress the layers, then add a cast iron skillet on top for extra weight.

Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.

Check for browning; if edges start to burn, cover with foil.

After 30 minutes, let it sit before cutting into it to allow juices to settle.
