Method

Preparation

1

Cook the Ground Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

2

Add Taco Seasoning

Stir in the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens and is well coated. Remove from heat.

3

Warm the Refried Beans

In a separate small saucepan, heat the refried beans over medium heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

Assembly

4

Prepare Tortillas

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.

5

Assemble the Tacos

Spread a spoonful of refried beans on each tortilla. Add a portion of the seasoned ground beef. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese.

6

Add Toppings

Finish with a dollop of sour cream and salsa. If desired, add optional toppings like sliced avocado, jalapeños, and chopped cilantro.
