Ingredients

1 can Refried beans
Corn tortillas
1 1/2 lb Ground beef
1/2 Onion, chopped
1 Packet taco seasoning
Shredded lettuce
Chopped tomatoes
Grated Cheddar cheese
Sour cream
Salsa

Preparation

Fry ground beef with onions, pouring off excess fat. Stir in taco seasoning. Heat refried beans in a saucepan. Warm tortillas one at a time in a frying pan over medium heat, flipping them several times. Keep warm in a clean dish towel.


Fill tortillas with beef and/or beans, and let diners top the filling with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream and salsa.

Cook's Notes

Tacos pack a lot of good food into those shells. Add Spanish rice and a salad of shredded cabbage and carrots with tangy vinaigrette, just like the restaurants do.
