Taco Cups

This is a fast, delicious meal or appetizer!

Servings: 12 taco cups, 2 dinner portions
Cook time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 lb ground beef/ turkey/ meat of choice
  • frozen spring roll wrappers
  • taco accoutrements (sour cream, cheese, lettuce, salsa)
  • nonstick spray
  • taco seasoning
Thaw spring roll wrappers.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Spray muffin pan with nonstick spray, add one wrapper per cup.  Place into hot oven until edges are browned ~10 minutes.
Brown meat and add taco seasoning.  TIP: I like to add a cup of water with my seasoning, and bring it to a boil.  This will result in a thick sauce that really penetrates the meat.
Portion evenly into cups and top with favorite taco toppings!

ALTERNATIVE!  Try fajita cups!  Thinly slice 1/2 onion and 1 green bell pepper.  Caramel until softened.  Add ground meat and brown.  Add taco seasonings.  Top with black beans, sour cream, salsa, cheese etc..
