1. 1

   Prepare the Birria Beef: In a medium saucepan, combine the shredded Trader Joe's Fully Cooked Beef Sirloin Roast, Trader Joe's Organic Beef Broth, Trader Joe's Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes (undrained), Trader Joe's Chile & Lime Seasoning Blend, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the beef to become very tender. The liquid will become your consommé for dipping.

   Assemble and cook the tacos: Dip each corn tortilla into the birria consommé from the beef mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Place the dipped tortilla onto the hot skillet. Sprinkle a generous amount of Trader Joe's Shredded Mexican Style Cheese Blend over half of the tortilla. Add a spoonful of the birria beef mixture over the cheese.

   Fold and crisp: Once the cheese begins to melt and the tortilla is slightly crispy on the bottom (about 1-2 minutes), fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling to create a taco. Press down gently with a spatula. Cook for another 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.

   ⏱️ 10 min

   Serve: Transfer the cooked tacos to a plate. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, beef, and cheese. Serve immediately with the remaining birria consommé for dipping, garnished with chopped Trader Joe's Organic Cilantro, finely diced Trader Joe's Organic Red Onion, and lime wedges.
