Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 4 hamburger buns
• Your favorite taco toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, salsa, guacamole)

Directions

1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
2. Drain any excess fat from the skillet and stir in the taco seasoning, following the package instructions.
3. Reduce the heat to low and let the beef simmer in the seasoning for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.
4. While the beef is simmering, toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a griddle until lightly golden.
5. Once the beef is cooked and seasoned, divide it into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.
6. Place the patties back into the skillet and cook over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
7. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each burger and cover the skillet with a lid to melt the cheese.
8. Remove the skillet from the heat and assemble the burgers on the toasted buns, topping each patty with your favorite taco toppings.
9. Serve the Taco Skillet Burgers immediately with a side of salsa and guacamole for a complete meal.
