04 - Press one crunchy taco shell onto the melted cheese to adhere. Remove from pan carefully. Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, and taco shells.
05 - Distribute seasoned beef evenly into each crunchy taco shell with cheesy flatbread base.
06 - Top each assembled taco with shredded iceberg lettuce, Monterey Jack or additional cheddar cheese, ranch dressing or chipotle mayonnaise, and diced tomatoes if desired.
07 - Serve immediately while warm.
