  • 1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix

  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, drained

  • 2 cups shredded pepper Jack cheese

Directions

  1. Crumble ground beef into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until evenly browned, then drain off grease. Add taco seasoning and cook according to package directions. Set aside.
