Talupas Recipe

My son, Daniel, is home for a visit and I try to fix some of his favorites while he's home. When I was in Jr. High, a friend's mom used to make these for us....they called them 'Talupas', so that's what I've always called them.

Ingredients:
Flat Flour Tortilla shells
Lean Ground Beef
Taco Seasoning (I prefer McCormick)
Refried Beans
Lettuce
Tomato
Green Stem Onions
Shredded Cheese

Brown the ground beef and drain ~ prepare taco seasoning according to package directions

Heat refried beans thoroughly

Chop veggies while ground beef and beans are cooking

Heat tortilla shells in microwave (approximately 30 seconds for 2-3 shells)

Place tortilla shell on plate ~ layer refried beans, ground beef, lettuce, tomato, green onion and cheese ~ of course, you can add whatever 'taco like' toppings you prefer.

Use a fork to eat ~ gonna be a mess if you try to pick it up!

**use remainder of tortilla shells for breakfast burritos the next morning or bean and cheese burritos at lunch
