My kids will tell you they are tired of this easy taco skillet. I have made it about six times to test and retest it so I could share it with YOU! I really just wanted to have the flavors and timing down quickly.
So we LOVE tacos, enchiladas and any kind of Mexican food. You would never know because I don’t share it often here on the blog, which is going to change because I know if we love it, you will too!
A FEW NOTES ABOUT THIS SKILLET MEAL!
We used pintos beans because that is a type of bean the whole family eats. You can make this dish with black beans or cannellini beans. We have tested it with both and they are really good!
Want some heat added to this? Chop up some jalapeños and throw them in, or use medium/hot salsa.
