Save RecipeIngredients
- 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey)
- 1/4 onion, diced
- 1/4 green pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 package taco seasoning
- 1 cup crushed tortilla chips
- 1 16-oz can refried beans
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salad toppings: Lettuce, tomatoes, olives, sour cream, etc.
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook beef, onion, and green pepper over medium heat, stirring occasionally until meat is browned.
- While the meat is browning, spread 1 cup crushed tortilla strips in the bottom of a greased 8x8" pan. Heat the refried beans in a small, microwaveable bowl (about 60 seconds) until they are warmed through. Spread the refried beans gently over the top of the tortilla chips.
- Once the meat is browned, drain and return to stove. Add 1/2 cup of water and taco seasoning to the meat mixture, and stir until completely combined. Pour browned meat mixture over the top of the refried beans.
- Top with the cup of cheddar cheese, and then broil in the oven for 2-4 minutes (until the cheese is melted and starts to bubble). Top with your favorite salad toppings and serve warm.
