Easy-to-make mini taco bites perfect for any occasion, from parties to main course meals.
Ingredients:
  • 6 (12 inch) whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix
  • 1 cup canned kidney beans, drained
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 0.5 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 0.25 cup sour cream, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon sliced green onions, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it nice and hot for baking.
  • Cut 4 rounds out of each tortilla using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, then gently press the rounds into each cup of a 24-cup mini muffin tin.
  • Bake the tortilla rounds in the preheated oven until they are golden and crisp, for about 12-15 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the ground beef until it's nice and crumbly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Discard any excess grease and mix in the taco seasoning.
  • Place the beef in a bowl and mix in the beans, tomato sauce, and diced tomatoes. Fill the tortilla cups with the mixture and sprinkle 1 teaspoon of Monterey Jack cheese on top of each cup.
  • Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet and bake in the oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the filling is heated through, for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Garnish with sour cream and sliced green onions before serving.
