Instructions
- Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium high for 6-8 minutes breaking up the meat and stirring as it cooks through. Drain well of excess grease.
- Next, add the taco seasoning and water (note: you can use the entire seasoning packet, I only use half because that works best for us); stir and bring to a boil the reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place the crunchy taco shells in a large rectangle baking dish then add a layer of cheese to the bottom of each shell (see notes) then a layer of the seasoned meat mixture and a final layer of cheese.
- Bake 5 minutes until the taco shells are toasted and the cheese is melted.

Notes
The first layer of cheese in the bottom of the shell keeps the crunchy shells from becoming soggy from the meat mixture.
