Instructions

In a large frying pan or skillet over medium high heat, cook ground beef and onions until meat is no longer pink. Add garlic and cook for another two minutes. Drain and return to the pan.

Heat refried beans in a medium pan until hot.
In a shallow pan, heat oil over medium high heat.
Fry corn tortillas until golden and hard on both sides then place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
In a small bowl, mix half the enchilada sauce and half the hot sauce together.
