I’ve been experimenting with some jarred and packaged cooking sauces lately, and my family has come to love a couple of them for excellent flavor.

Since I do most of the cooking, I also appreciate how easy they make dinner assembly.

2 teaspoons olive oil
Half an onion, chopped
1 pound ground beef (preferably grass-fed)
8 ounces Melissa's Produce Six-Bean Medley
1 (12-ounce) jar Herdez Roasted Pasilla Chile Mexican Cooking Sauce
.
Taco assembly

Directions

Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Add beef and sauté 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until cooked through. Add beans and pasilla chile sauce, and heat through, another minute or so.
To assemble tacos, put a taco bowl-shell on a plate, add shredded cabbage as the first layer, add a spoonful of the meat-bean mixture, and top with garnishes. You can let each person put the garnishes they like, to personalize their own taco bowl. This strategy also works well if you're having a taco party.
