1. Heat oven to 325°F.
2. In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in 2/3 cup water and taco seasoning mix (from dinner kit); heat to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened. Remove from heat.
3. Meanwhile, heat hard taco shells (from dinner kit) as directed on package. Arrange flour tortillas (from dinner kit) on large baking sheet. Spread 1/3 cup of the cheese on each tortilla, making sure cheese covers entire tortilla. Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
4. While still warm, place one hard shell in middle of cheese side of each tortilla, and press tortilla around shell.
5. Fill hard shell with beef filling, and top with lettuce, tomatoes, crema and taco sauce (from dinner kit), as desired.
6. Chopped green onions or cilantro make for extra fresh topping additions to this quesadilla taco.
EXPERT TIPS: Old El Pasoâ„¢ Shredded 3 Pepper Cheese Blend can be substituted for the Old El Pasoâ„¢ Shredded Mexican Style 4 Cheese in this recipe, if desired. If you don't have a large baking sheet, you can bake the flour tortillas in two batches.
