Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once heated, add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon until fully browned.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Mix well and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes until the beef is well-coated and the flavors meld together. Remove from heat.
While the beef is cooking, warm the refried beans in a small saucepan over low heat or microwave them for 2-3 minutes in a microwave-safe bowl.
Chop the red onion and cilantro and combine them in a small bowl. Add lime juice, salt, and black pepper, and mix to create a simple onion-cilantro mixture.
Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a layer of refried beans evenly in the center of the tortilla.
Add a layer of the cooked ground beef over the beans, followed by a portion of guacamole.
Spoon some salsa over the guacamole, then sprinkle with crushed tortilla chips for crunch.
Top with a heaped spoonful of the onion-cilantro mixture to add freshness.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and serve immediately with additional salsa on the side if desired.
