Move over, Taco Bell! Here is a great taco dinner you can make right
at home, without being chinsy on the cheese!
1 pound ground beef
1 package (1-1/4 ounces) Taco Seasoning Mix
3/4 cup water
1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
10 taco-size flour tortillas
10 hard taco shells
2-1/2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tomato, diced
Sour cream
Taco Sauce
1. Brown ground beef in skillet, crumbling into very fine pieces;
drain.
Return to skillet and add water and seasoning packet. Bring to a boil;
reduce heat and simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
2. Meanwhile, heat refried beans in a saucepan. Warm tortillas and
taco shells according to package directions.
3. Assemble taco by spreading 3 tbsp. refried beans on warm flour
tortilla. Place hard taco shell on middle of flour tortilla and wrap
up sides of taco. Fill with beef, lettuce, cheese and tomatoes. Top
