In a medium bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and baking powder. Gradually add olive oil and water while mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, then let it rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion out into flat circles about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil. Cook each dough circle for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Set aside cooked chalupa shells.
In another skillet, cook the lean ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Add the salt-free taco seasoning to the cooked beef along with 1/4 cup of water. Stir well and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
Warm the low sodium refried beans either on the stovetop or in a microwave-safe dish.
To assemble the chalupas, spread a layer of refried beans on each chalupa shell followed by a portion of seasoned beef.
Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, a dollop of reduced fat sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium Chalupa Supreme!
