A Fun Twist to Taco Night - From My Kitchen to Yours

Muffin Pan Taco Salads

*Note that the only "required" ingredient is the shell.  You can add whatever you wish.  However, below is what I used to make mine.


Serves 8
 
Ingredients:
8 small flour tortillas
1 pound ground burger
2 tbsp taco seasoning
1/2 cup diced green pepper
1/4 cup diced onion
2 tbsp water
3 cups shredded lettuce
1/2 cup diced tomato
1 cup shredded cheddar
Salsa to top
Sour cream to top
Directions:
Brown burger in a medium skillet.  Add diced peppers, onions, taco seasoning, and water.  Let simmer for 5 minutes.
Place tortillas in microwave for about 20 seconds or until very soft.  Place each tortilla in a greased spot in a jumbo muffin pan.  A regular-sized muffin pan works as well; however, you may need to trim the tortilla.  
Place a small amount of burger into each tortilla in the muffin pan.  Top with a small amount of cheese and place in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.

Remove shells with burger from oven and top with your favorite toppings!
