Name: Taco skillet recipe
Ingredients: 2 cups of chopped/shredded/ground meat (I use whatever meat I have on hand already cooked. Turkey, beef, or chicken all work.); 1 pkg taco seasoning mix; 1 jar (16 oz) thick & chunky salsa (the original recipe called for 1 jar, but I am too cheap to use a whole jar, I just use 1/4 and it still tastes great); 1 can (11 oz) corn (mexi-corn works great)); 2 cups cooked instant rice; 3 cups (+/-) beans (black or pintos work well); 2 cups shredded cheese (divided – your favorite kind); optional for garnish: lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, diced avocado, green onions – whatever you like on your tacos or have in the fridge
