Quick & Tasty Sheet Pan Tacos

Delicious and customizable sheet pan tacos, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (or plant-based meat substitute)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or 2–3 tbsp homemade mix)
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn, drained (canned or thawed frozen)
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 12 taco shells (hard shells)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
  • Toppings: sour cream, salsa, avocado, lettuce, diced tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and warm a rimmed sheet pan in the oven.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium; add ground beef and cook until browned, about 6–8 minutes.
  3. Drain excess fat, then stir in taco seasoning, black beans, corn, bell pepper, and onion; cook for 4–5 minutes.
  4. Arrange taco shells on the warmed sheet pan, fill each with the beef mixture, and top with shredded cheese.
  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until cheese is melted and shells are crisp.
  6. Top with sour cream, salsa, avocado, lettuce, and tomatoes; serve immediately.

Notes

For a lighter option, swap ground turkey or use a crumbled plant-based beef. For extra flavor, add smoked paprika or chipotle powder.
