    • 🥛 2 ½ cups milk
    • 🧈 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 🧀 4 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend

STEPS

1

Spray a frying pan with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Cook and stir steak until barely any pink remains, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain fat from pan; add taco seasoning to the steak. Let simmer until desired consistency is reached, 3 to 5 minutes.

2

Warm milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until small bubbles appear along the sides. Remove from heat.

3

Melt butter in another medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour once bubbles disappear. Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in the warm milk and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in shredded cheese.

4

Add black beans, salsa, and the steak pieces. Stir and serve with tortilla chips.
