Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup refried beans
- 0.5 cup yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup water
- 10 pieces hard taco shells
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.25 cup sliced jalapeños
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add the finely diced onion to the cooked ground beef and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water, mixing until the ground beef is evenly coated. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated.
Add the refried beans to the skillet and stir thoroughly to combine with the beef mixture. Remove from heat.
Place the hard taco shells upright in a 9x13-inch baking dish, ensuring they are snugly fitted to prevent tipping.
Spoon the beef and bean mixture into each taco shell, filling them about 2/3 of the way full.
Sprinkle shredded Mexican blend cheese evenly over each filled taco.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the taco shells are slightly crispy.
Remove the tacos from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes.
Top the tacos with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, sliced jalapeños, and chopped cilantro, as desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Beef Bean Oven Tacos!
