Make your Own Taco Bowls by Flipping Over a Pampered Chef Muffin Pan!

The next time taco night rolls around, instead of serving the same old pre-made hard shelled tacos, pull out your muffin pan, preheat your oven, and reach for that bag of tortillas in the fridge. You're going to make taco bowls.

The blog Emily Bites explains that making taco bowls is actually really easy—all you need to do is nestle in a few small—around 6-inch—tortillas in the spaces between the cups of your upside-down muffin tin. Preheat the oven to about 375-degrees, sprinkle the tortillas with some salt and a little water, and form them into the bowl-like shape you're familiar with. Toss them in the oven for about 10 minutes, and you'll have taco bowls.

Once they're done, take them out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Then, fill them with all of your favorite taco fixings like seasoned ground beef or chicken, lettuce, cheese, salsa, and sour cream. The possibilities are endless! Not only are these taco bowls fun and unique, but they also solve the common problem of tacos falling apart and spilling their contents all over your plate. The bowl shape keeps all of your ingredients neatly contained, making for a mess-free and delicious meal. http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/9217/tacobowls03454n.jpgThese taco bowls are also great for parties or gatherings, as they make for a cute and convenient finger food.

Related to How to Make Taco Bowls Using a Muffin Pan?

1. How do I prevent the taco bowls from sticking to the muffin pan?

To prevent the taco bowls from sticking to the muffin pan, we recommend lightly greasing the pan with cooking spray or brushing it with oil before placing the tortillas in the cups. This will create a barrier between the pan and the tortilla, allowing for easy release after baking.

2. Can I use any type of tortillas for the taco bowls?

Yes, you can use any type of tortillas for the taco bowls. We recommend using small or medium sized tortillas, but you can also use larger tortillas and cut them to fit the muffin pan cups. Corn or flour tortillas both work well for this recipe.

3. How do I shape the tortillas into bowls?

To shape the tortillas into bowls, gently press each tortilla into a muffin pan cup. Make sure to press the tortilla down into the bottom of the cup and up the sides to create a bowl shape. You can also use a small rolling pin or the bottom of a drinking glass to help shape the tortillas.

4. Can I make the taco bowls in advance?

Yes, you can make the taco bowls in advance. After baking, let the taco bowls cool completely and then store them in an airtight container for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, you can reheat the taco bowls in the oven or microwave until warm.

5. What toppings do you recommend for the taco bowls?

The toppings for the taco bowls are completely customizable, but some popular options include ground beef or chicken, shredded cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. You can also get creative and add your own favorite toppings to make the taco bowls unique and delicious!
