Taco Potatoes

To prepare Taco Potatoes, you’ll need simple ingredients that can be found in most grocery stores. Here’s what you’ll need to gather:

1 pound lean ground beef – This will be the base of the savory taco filling, and lean ground beef ensures the dish isn’t too greasy.
4 to 6 medium Russet potatoes – These potatoes are perfect for baking as they have a fluffy interior that complements the taco filling beautifully.
1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning – The taco seasoning brings all the bold and zesty flavors to the beef, making it the heart of the dish.
½ cup water – Used to help create a saucy texture for the taco filling.
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – A must for that ooey-gooey cheesy topping that makes this dish extra indulgent.
½ cup sour cream – Adds a creamy, tangy touch to balance the richness of the beef and cheese.
¼ cup chopped green onions – These provide a fresh, crunchy element that contrasts the richness of the other ingredients.
½ cup diced tomatoes – The tomatoes bring a burst of freshness and color to the dish, adding a juicy layer of flavor.
