Crunchy baked shells made from seasoned corn tortillas and filled with all the fixings.
For shells:
Wrap 4 tortillas in a paper towel and microwave for 25 seconds on high to soften them. For each tortilla, brush oil on both sides, sprinkling salt and chili powder on just the second side. Drape each tortilla over two adjacent bars of the oven rack, seasoned side up. Leave the three bars closest to the oven walls empty on both sides until later. Repeat with 4 more tortillas, for a total of 8 in the oven, then close oven and start preheating to 350 degrees while working with the remaining 4 tortillas. Once the last 4 are ready, open the oven and quickly add these four to the open spaces left by the oven walls, leaving just one bar next the the wall open on each side (shells tend to burn if too close to wall). Continue baking about 5 minutes more once the preheating phase is finished. Remove them as soon as the first touch of browning is visible.
For meat mixture:
Brown ground beef in pan over medium high heat, breaking up any large chunks. Once browned, turn heat to low and add spices, beans, and enough water to cover bottom of pan. Simmer until seasonings are moistened and beans are warm.
Serve with the other toppings as desired.
