Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tbsp my Homemade taco Seasoning (link bellow) or any other low sodium taco seasoning
  • 12 hard taco shells Always buy the 18 pack because there will always be a few broken tacos in the package.
  • 1 -16 oz can of refried beans
  • 1/3 cup can of red enchilada sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Let's Make It
 

  • Brown the meat in a pan- Once the meat is almost done add the seasoning and continue cooking. Drain the fat and then add in 1/3 cup of enchillada sauce. Cook for 2-3 more minutes.
  • Take your taco shells out of the package and stand them up straight in two rows of six in a 9 x 13 baking dish.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and warm up the refried beans- I usually just pop them in the microwave for about 90 seconds.
  • Using a spatula, stuff the shells with the beans. This something you will have to eyeball- I usually just use enough to cover the bottom of the taco shell. If you have any leftover at the end, just stuff them some more. Use it all!
  • Next add the ground beef. Again, you will have to eyeball this. Stuff them pretty full and use all of the meat.
  • Fill the tacos up with cheese.
  • Pop them in to the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes. The crispier, the better, but don't let them burn.
  • Let them cool for at least 5 minutes. They need time to cool down or they will fall apart.
