Comforting baked Russet potatoes filled with seasoned ground beef, cheese, and fresh toppings for a hearty meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 454 g lean ground beef

  • 120 ml water
  • 120 g sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (about 400°F).

  5. Drain when necessary, then stir in the taco seasoning and water. Mix and let simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened.
  6. Slice each baked potato lengthwise and fluff the interiors with a fork.
  7. Spoon the seasoned beef mixture over the fluffed potatoes. Top with cheese, sour cream, green onions, and diced tomatoes.
  8. Enjoy the Taco Loaded Baked Potatoes while hot and the cheese is melted.

Notes

For even cooking, choose potatoes of similar size. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
