How to Store:

Fridge: Store cooked big mac taco in an airtight container for up to 1-2 days.

Freezer:

• For ideal freshness, freeze before cooking. Freezing can be done after cooking aswell but it will not taste as good.

Alternatives:

Meat options:

• Ground lamb (more traditional, richer flavor)

• Ground chicken or turkey (lighter option, but not as tasty in my opinion)

Vegetarian option:

• Use spiced mushrooms, lentil mixture, or plant-based ground meat
