Today on Broke Gourmet we’re making the creamiest Rotel beef soft tacos I’ve ever made.
In this episode a cowboy walks into Taco Mart looking for something that’s not even on the menu — creamy Rotel beef soft tacos. Luckily the cook says he saw a video on Broke Gourmet showing how to make them.
These tacos are creamy, cheesy, slightly spicy, and incredibly easy to make. The Rotel tomatoes, cream cheese, and spices create a rich taco filling that works perfectly in soft tortillas.
If you’re looking for a cheap dinner idea, budget tacos, or a fast weeknight meal, this recipe is perfect.
