Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb ground beef (at least 80% lean)
1 box (8.8 oz) Old El Paso™ Stand 'N Stuff™ Taco Dinner Kit
1 can (16 oz) refried beans
2 cups finely shredded cheddar cheese (8 oz)
1 cup shredded lettuce
3/4 cup chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 6 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in 2/3 cup water and the taco seasoning mix (from dinner kit); heat to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened.
  • In small microwavable bowl, place beans and 1/2 cup of the cheese; cover, and microwave on High 2 to 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes, until heated through. Spread bean mixture on 10- to 12-inch round platter. Carefully spread seasoned beef mixture over beans.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of the taco sauce (from dinner kit) in small resealable food-storage plastic bag; set aside. Top beef mixture with remaining taco sauce, the lettuce and tomatoes; completely cover top with remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese. Cut small corner from bag; pipe reserved taco sauce onto cheese to look like seams of basketball.
  • Heat taco shells (from dinner kit) as directed on package. To serve, scoop layered taco mixture into shells.
