    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Prepare the fry bread according to the recipe and keep warm.
    2. Brown the beef with the onion in a skillet; add the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and water and simmer 5 minutes.
    3. Top each fry bread with beans, seasoned beef, lettuce, tomato, and cheese.
    4. Finish with sour cream, cilantro, and hot sauce. Serve immediately while the fry bread is crisp.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Assemble right before eating — fry bread gets chewy as it sits. Pile it high; the mess is part of the fun.
