Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons homemade taco seasoning*
  • ½ cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • ⅓ cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup refried beans
  • 12 small flour tortillas* street taco size

Avocado Crema

  • 1 large avocado pitted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • ⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Heat the ground beef in a large skillet over medium/high heat for 2-3 minutes, breaking the beef up into small pieces.
  • Add the taco seasoning to the beef and cook until the ground beef is no longer pink. Remove from heat.
  • Add the shredded cheese and Greek yogurt to the beef and stir to combine.

  • Lay the 9 tortillas out on a clean, flat surface. Distribute the refried beans evenly between the tortillas. Top with the ground beef.
    Seven tortillas spread with refried beans and ground beef mixture are arranged on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Fold each tortilla in half and transfer to the greased baking sheet.

  • Bake the tacos for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through so both sides of the tortillas become golden brown. Remove from the oven.

  • While the tacos are baking, make the avocado crema by adding the avocado meat, lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.

Notes

  • Store-bought taco seasoning can be used for this recipe.
  • These tacos can be frozen. Allow them to cool completely before placing them in a freezer-safe container. To reheat the tacos, preheat the oven to 350ºF and then bake the tacos for 15-20 minutes until thawed.
  • Flour tortillas: you can also use corn tortillas, but when we tested this the tacos shells came out a bit chewy and they didn’t get crispy the way flour tortillas did.
