Ultimate oven-baked tacos with seasoned beef, refried beans, melty cheese, and fresh toppings - perfect for game day snacking.
Ingredients:
  • 1 box (4.7 oz) Old El Paso™ Stand 'n Stuff Taco Shells (10 Count)
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium chopped onion (1/2 cup)
  • 1 packet (1 oz) Old El Paso™ Original Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 can (16 oz) Old El Paso™ Traditional Refried Beans
  • 1 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (5 oz)
  • Shredded lettuce, chopped tomato, sliced jalapeño chiles, chopped red onion, lime wedges, cilantro leaves, salsa, guacamole and sour cream, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease the bottom of a 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange the taco shells upright and close together in the dish; set aside.
  • In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, sauté the beef and onion over medium-high heat for 5 to 7 minutes until the beef is cooked through. Drain any excess fat. Add taco seasoning mix and water, bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and serve.
  • Spread a generous amount of refried beans in each shell, top with a generous portion of beef mixture and shredded cheese, then bake for 5 to 7 minutes until the cheese is melted. Add any additional toppings as desired before serving.
