Cheesy Taco Potatoes

4. Melt the Cheese:

Return the potatoes to the oven (or use a broiler) for 3–5 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

5. Add Toppings and Serve:

Remove from the oven and top with your favorite taco fixings — sour cream, salsa, green onions, diced tomatoes, jalapeños, or guacamole. Serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Tips

• Loaded Style: Add crispy bacon bits or sautéed peppers for extra flavor and texture.
• Make It a Casserole: Slice baked potatoes into chunks, layer in a casserole dish, and top with taco beef and cheese. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes.
• Cheese Choices: Pepper Jack, Monterey Jack, or a Mexican blend all melt beautifully and add spice.
• Meal Prep: Cook beef and bake potatoes in advance, then assemble and reheat for a quick weeknight meal.
