Instructions

  1. Cook ground beef with 1 packet of taco seasoning according to the ground beef package instructions.
  2. On a flat surface, lay out a tortilla.
  3. Spread ¼ cup of the refried beans over half of the tortilla, covering it.
  4. Evenly distribute ½ cup of the ground beef over the refried beans.
  5. Evenly distribute ½ cup of the vegan cheese over vegan beef and cheese.
  6. Preheat a large skillet to medium heat. Lightly spray the bottom of the inside with the avocado oil to prevent sticking. No need to oil if you have a nonstick pan.
  7. When the skillet is hot, carefully place the half covered tortilla, filling side up in the skillet.
  8. Cover the pan with a slight gap to let some steam escape and cook for 2-3 minutes to warm up and very lightly brown the tortilla but not crisp. Adjust as needed according to your stove. My induction stove is intense.
  9. Carefully fold over the unfilled half of the tortilla to cover the fillings on the other half and carefully flip it so that the cheese side is down. We want that side to cook first.
  10. Cook covered with a slight gap between lid and skillet for 1 minutes until cheese is melted.
  11. Flip over and uncover the pan completely.
  12. Cook 1 minute or until the bottom is toasted.
  13. Repeat three more times to make a total of four servings.
  14. Serve with vegan cilantro lime cream sauce and enjoy!

Notes

  • Don’t spray too much oil in the skillet as tortillas are absorbent. 
  • Adding each ingredient in order to create the filling in order is important as we want to be able to spread the beans.
