Method
Preparation of Main Components
- 1
Cook the Ground Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Add Taco Seasoning
Once the ground beef is fully cooked, drain any excess fat. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef and add 2/3 cup of water. Stir to combine and allow it to simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Warm Tortillas
Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.

Prepare the Toppings
While the beef is cooking, prepare the toppings by washing and chopping the lettuce and tomatoes. Grate the cheese if not pre-shredded. Place all toppings in separate bowls for easy serving.

If using fresh jalapeños, slice them thinly and place them in a small bowl. Adjust the quantity according to your heat preference.

Heat Refried Beans
Open the can of refried beans and place them in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally until heated through, about 5 minutes.
