For those who would like to celebrate Taco Day with more than just the little taco seasoning packet...

(I'm not sure how good this one is since I haven't made it before, but it sounds good)

Ingredients:
* 2 lbs ground beef
* 1 teaspoon Salt
* 2 tablespoons Chilli powder
* 2 tablespoons Paprika
* 1 teaspoon Cumin
* 1 teaspoon Garlic powder or 2 cloves
* 1/2 diced Bell pepper
* 1/2 diced medium Onion
* 12 corn tortillas

Instructions for taco recipe:
In 2 quart sauce pan add ground beef, salt, chili powder, garlic, cumin, paprika, enough water to cover meat. Bring to a boil. Simmer over medium low heat about an hour. Then add 1/2 medium chopped onion, 1/2 medium chopped bell pepper continue cooking 20 or 30 more minutes.

Soft beef Tacos: Heat oil in skillet. Cook corn tortillas, one at a time, in hot oil until soft, about 10 to 15 seconds; drain.

Spoon 2 Tablespoons of the beef taco meat in center of each tortilla. Fold tortilla over meat; or roll up like an enchilada.

Garnish with tomato, lettuce, and cheese. Topped with sour cream and guacamole would be great. Rice and refried beans would complete the plate. Serving Salsa on the side.
