How to Make Taco Ring

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
  4. Spread a thin layer of refried beans on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  5. Arrange a single layer of tortilla chips around the edge of the baking dish to form a ring, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Spoon the seasoned ground beef over the refried beans inside the tortilla chip ring.
  7. Top with shredded cheese.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  10. Carefully top with shredded lettuce, halved cherry or grape tomatoes, and your favorite taco toppings (sour cream, salsa, guacamole).
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
