How much taco meat per person?
Per taco, the average person will need about 2 ounces of taco meat, plus other fillings. A taco bowl calls for slightly more - treat it as about 2 tacos, or 4 ounces of taco meat. So, if you are serving a family of 4, you will need around 16 ounces of taco meat - 1 pound of ground beef. Follow this chart on how much taco meat per person for easy reference: My crockpot taco meat recipe uses 3 pounds of taco meat, so it creates plenty for this taco bowl recipe with room for leftovers!
