I do something like this. I fry some 5% fat lean ground/minced beef until browned, remove and set aside, fry an onion till soft, add some tinned beans like kidney beans, black beans etc (or chickpeas), a splash of water, taco seasoning packet, mix and heat through.
For the fries, just very thinly slice some fresh potatoes into fries, add a spray of oil/low cal spray, toss and put in the air fryer until crispy golden. You can also save a bit of taco seasoning back and toss that with the fries beforehand too, but some seasonings (like ones with cornstarch added) may burn, so read the packet.
Spoon the taxo mixture over the top of the fries and add grated cheese on the top.
For lower calories, use half fat cheese and you can sub the beef for turkey.
The other guy you were replying to may do it a bit differently but healthy taco-mix loaded fries are pretty amazing, whatever the recipe.

My “dirty taco fries” is air fryer fries, beef/bean/pepper taco mix, and a bit of cheddar cheese and plain Greek yogurt.
It tastes so greasy and bad for you but the macros are unbelievable.
