Sheet Pan Tacos

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, about 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños (if using), taco seasoning, and dried minced onion. Mix with your hands until just combined.

Wrap the flour tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30-60 seconds to make them pliable.

Line a large sheet pan with aluminum foil and spray it generously with cooking spray.

Working with one tortilla at a time, press the beef mixture in a thin, even layer over one half of the tortilla, extending to the edge.

If using, spread a layer of refried beans on the other half of the tortilla. Sprinkle a little more cheese over the fillings.

Fold the tortilla in half and press down gently. Spray the top of the folded taco with cooking spray.

Place the tacos on the prepared baking sheet, sprayed-side down. Spray the new top side with more cooking spray.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the bottom is golden and crispy.

Carefully remove the pan from the oven and flip the tacos. The cheese will have created a crispy 'skirt'.

Return to the oven and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the second side is also golden brown and crispy.

Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with your favorite toppings like guacamole, pico de gallo, and sour cream.
