Put ground beef into a pot on high heat.

Shred the ground beef with a cooking utensil as it cooks.

Cook the beef until browned, ensuring there are no pink spots.

Add 2 packages of taco seasoning to the beef.

Add water to the taco seasoning packets to help incorporate the seasonings into the meat.

Let the meat cook for about 20 minutes until fully cooked.

Add a little bit of accent seasoning for extra flavor.

Cut up 2 tomatoes to use as toppings.

Heat about 2 cups of canola oil in a pan for frying the pita bread.

Fry the pita bread for about 30 seconds on each side, making sure to turn them to avoid burning.

Remove the pita bread from the oil and let it drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

Assemble the chalupa by spreading sour cream on the fried pita bread.

Add shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes on top of the sour cream.

Drizzle mild Taco Bell sauce over the toppings.

Finish with shredded cheese on top.
