# Components:

01 - 0.5 pound ground beef
02 - 0.5 small onion, finely diced
03 - 1 clove garlic, minced
04 - 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
05 - 0.25 teaspoon salt
06 - 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
07 - 2 tablespoons water
→ Cheesy Flatbreads
08 - 4 small flour tortillas (soft taco size)

→ Crunchy Tacos and Toppings
10 - 4 crunchy taco shells
11 - 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
12 - 0.5 cup shredded Monterey Jack or additional cheddar cheese
13 - 0.25 cup ranch dressing or spicy chipotle mayonnaise

# Method:
01 - In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and diced onion until fully browned, approximately 5 minutes. Drain excess fat as needed.
02 - Add minced garlic, taco seasoning, salt, black pepper, and water to the skillet. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the beef is well seasoned and moist. Remove skillet from heat.
03 - While the beef simmers, heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Place one flour tortilla in the pan, sprinkle evenly with one quarter cup of shredded cheddar, and cover until the cheese melts, about 1 to 2 minutes.
04 - Immediately press one crunchy taco shell onto the melted cheese to adhere. Remove carefully from the pan. Repeat this process with remaining tortillas, cheese, and taco shells.
05 - Fill each crunchy taco shell with the seasoned beef mixture.
06 - Top each taco with shredded lettuce, Monterey Jack or additional cheddar cheese, ranch dressing or chipotle mayo, and diced tomato, if using.
07 - Serve tacos warm and enjoy immediately.
