Ingredients

Serves :
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil


  • 2 brown onions, finely chopped


  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed


  • 500g beef mince


  • 1 x 400g can chopped tomatoes


  • 1 x 35g pkt taco seasoning


  • 8 flour tortillas


  • 2 avocados, halved, stones removed, peeled, thinly sliced lengthways


  • 235g (1 cup) sour cream


  • 160g (2 cups) coarsely grated cheddar

Directions

  • Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes or until soft.
  • Add the mince. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up any lumps, for 5-6 minutes or until mince changes colour. Add the tomato and seasoning, and stir until heated through.

Continue layering with 4 tortillas and the remaining mince mixture, finishing with tortillas. Place the avocado, in a single layer, on top. Top with the remaining tortillas. Spread with the sour cream. Top with the cheddar. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden. Serve.
