Baking Instructions

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium heat then add ground beef, onion and garlic and cook until browned, breaking into small pieces as it browns, approx 7-10 min.
• Add the cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring often.
• Stir in the tomatoes and simmer for 7-10 minutes or until the juice has cooked down.
• Line taco shells along a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish and bake for 5 minutes if using a light colored dish, 3 minutes if using a dark dish.
• Carefully remove from oven. Sprinkle some of the shredded cheese onto the bottom of each taco shell, followed by the black beans, then top with ground beef mixture.
• Top with remaining cheese and bake, uncovered, for 7-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
• Remove from heat and add desired toppings. Serve tacos hot, straight out of the oven.
