Instructions

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon or spatula, until fully browned. Drain any excess grease from the skillet if necessary.
Lower the heat to medium and add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, onion powder, salt, black pepper, tomato sauce, and water. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the meat is fully cooked and flavors meld together.
Warm the tortillas as desired, either on a skillet or microwave. Spoon the taco meat into each tortilla and add your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, or avocado. Serve immediately while warm.
