1 packet taco seasoning mix

NOTE: If you are using a can of pinto beans, put them in a fry pan with a tablespoon of oil over medium heat, stirring often and mashing the beans with your spoon or spatula. Add the taco seasoning at this time. Cook until thickened and add to the crock pot.
Mix the taco seasoning and the refried beans in the crock pot. Add the rice, water, and salsa.
Brown the ground beef with the green pepper, seasoning with the garlic powder, pepper, and seasoned salt. Drain off grease and add beef to the crock pot.
Give everything a good stir and turn to high heat for four hours. Use the mixture to fill taco shells, over chips, or inside flour tortillas.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
