# Steps:
01 -
Warm up a skillet on medium heat and cook the ground beef, breaking it into small pieces as it browns. Once cooked, drain the extra grease, then toss in the diced onion and taco spices.
02 -
Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes to soften the onions. Blend in the refried beans, mixing until smooth. Add the diced chilies, stir again, and let it simmer for another couple of minutes before turning off the heat.
03 -
Use a cast iron skillet to toast each tortilla until both sides turn golden and slightly crispy.
04 -
Layer some shredded cheese on one side of a tortilla, add the warm beef filling, then fold it. Cook each side for 1-2 minutes until the shell gets crispy, and the cheese reaches that gooey melted goodness.

Top your tacos with a scoop of pico de gallo, and put some sour cream or guacamole alongside for dipping or topping.
