Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup refried beans
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Add the taco seasoning and water to the skillet, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Lightly brush the tortillas with vegetable oil and bake them on a sheet for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy.
  5. Spread a thin layer of refried beans on two tortillas and top with the seasoned beef.
  6. Place another tortilla on top of each, then spread salsa over each one.
  7. Sprinkle shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, black olives, and green onions on top.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Slice and serve with sour cream if desired.
