Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat, then place an oven-safe wire rack on top of the baking sheet. This setup will allow air to circulate around the tortillas for even crisping.

Prepare the Dorito crumbs: Place the Zesty Cheese flavored Doritos into a food processor and pulse until finely crushed into a breadcrumb-like consistency. Alternatively, place Doritos in a large zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin or potato masher. Pour the crushed Doritos into a shallow dish or plate.

Prepare the taco shells: Pour the Old El Paso taco sauce into a separate shallow dish. Take one flour tortilla and dip it into the taco sauce, ensuring both sides are thoroughly coated. Immediately press the sauce-coated tortilla into the crushed Doritos, ensuring both sides are completely covered with the chip crumbs.

Carefully fold the coated tortilla in half to form a taco shell shape. Place the folded tortilla over two rungs of the wire rack on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas, spacing them evenly on the rack.

Bake the Dorito-crusted shells for 8 to 12 minutes, or until they are crispy and hold their shape. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. Once crispy, remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the rack.

While the shells are baking, prepare the taco filling: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned. Drain any excess grease.

Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water into the ground beef. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the meat is well-coated with the seasoning.

Assemble the tacos: Fill each crispy Dorito-crusted taco shell with the seasoned ground beef. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, diced tomatoes, and chopped green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy the crunchy, flavorful experience!
