If you have ever met an insufferable California native, you will note their obsessive discussion about REAL mexican food and how, as an East coaster, you cannot possibly fathom the complexity of tastes and spices that can only be found in various food trucks and food stalls. However, instead of accepting their assumed superiority, I suggest we fight back with our own interpretation of tacos. With most of our Mexicans working the kitchens of Japanese and Italian restaurants, we have little to fall back on that is much better than the infamous taco bell (I won't capitalize it so you can visualize the shame). When you're not in the mood for grade F beef, you can make your own version at home with delightful packets of taco seasoning. The result is a heavily addictive and satisfying flavored beef that all coasts can enjoy in peace.
1. Brown 1 lb ground beef. Drain, add 2/3 cup water and packet of taco seasoning.
2. Wash and dice two tomatoes, one bunch cilantro, and red leaf lettuce.
3. Warm wheat or corn tortillas for 1:30 in the microwave.
4. Offer a wide range of hot sauces and salsas.
