Instructions

1. Heat a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Once oil is hot, add the onion and sauté until translucent and begins to brown, about 4 minutes.

2. Add the mushrooms, red bell pepper, beef, taco seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Cook the beef until pink is no longer visible.

3. If desired, warm the tortillas by placing them on a plate, cover with a damp paper towel and microwave in 30-second bursts until warmed.

4. Assemble the tacos by placing 1/3 cup of the filling on a tortilla then top with 1 tablespoon cheese, 1/4 cup lettuce and 2 tablespoons tomato.
