Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup water
- 4 flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup cooked black beans
- 0.5 cup diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup chopped green onions
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- 0.5 cup sour cream (for topping)
- 0.5 cup salsa (for topping)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return it to the heat.
Step 4
Stir in the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the seasoning is evenly distributed and the mixture thickens.
Step 5
Layer the flour tortillas directly on top of the beef mixture in the skillet, slightly overlapping to cover the bottom of the pan.
Step 6
Spread the black beans evenly over the tortillas, followed by a layer of diced tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 7
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and cook for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions and cilantro, if using.
Step 9
Serve directly from the pan, scooping portions onto plates. Top with sour cream, salsa, or additional toppings as desired.
