Baked Tacos with Bison

If you would like an easy taco dish, try baked tacos with Bison. I love making this easy taco dish for my family, they love it and eat it so well. Perfect, for the family with picky eaters. My teen is usually a picky eater and normally eats one taco at a meal. If I am lucky! But, after making these, he ate 6!

When I make this for my family, I will make extra taco meat. So, I can have another easy dinner, lunch, or even snack later in the week. It also freezes well. If you would rather have chicken instead of bison try Shredded Mexican Chicken in the Crockpot this makes delicious tacos as well. Follow along and let’s make this recipe.

Ingredients for Baked Tacos

• Ground Bison
• Organic Black Beans
• Rotel Tomatoes
• Green Chili
• Chili Powder
• Cumin
• Garlic Powder
• Paprika
• Onion Powder
• Cayenne
• Gluten-Free Taco Shells
• Grated Cheese
• Favorite Taco Toppings

All ingredients are wholesome and healthy for you and your family. Bison Is fairly low in fat and calories. It is also a rich source of B vitamins, iron, selenium, and zinc.

First, you will brown the bison in a skillet. After this, you add the black beans, Rotel tomatoes, green chili, and then spices. Mix well and heat. Next, which is very important, grease the baking dish. Otherwise, your tacos will become soggy. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Assemble Tacos

After greasing the baking dish, line taco shells in a glass dish. A 2-quart glass baking dish works perfectly for this. Fill each taco shell with meat and top with cheese. Put in the oven and bake for 5 to 8 minutes. Keep an eye on it so it does not overcook. Below is how it should look.

Toppings

Now that the tacos are finished baking, here comes the best part. Topping your tacos with your favorite toppings! Here is a list of mine. But use whatever you and your family like for tacos.

• Lettuce
• Tomato
• Sour cream
• Guacamole
• Salsa
• Onion
• And even jalapeños
