Taco Tuesday

Man i heart Mexican food! 

okay so.... actually I love being a "white person pretending to eat mexican food" So.... in truth I love taco's, burrito's & quesadilla's. Here lately I have been in love with my muffin pan. It seems like as long as whatever I cook comes in the form of a cupcake or muffin, then the kids will gobble it up. Its totally a win-win. Mommy wins because it is totally built-in portion control and the kids love it because everything is cooler "mini-sized". So tonight we had "Taco Cupcakes".

They were so simple and so yummy! Here ya go. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 lb Ground Turkey
4 tbsp Taco Seasoning (or a mixture of cumin, granulated garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, chili powder)
1 cup water

12 corn tortillas (the small tostada size)
1 can black beans, drained
1/2 lb Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Tillamook is my fav)



Toppings: (Totally your preference on this!)
Spring Mix with Spinach
Diced Roma Tomatoes
Sour Cream
Salsa
Jalapenos
Black Olives

Directions:

Oven Ready

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Brown ground turkey in pan with taco seasoning. Add water and let simmer for 5 minutes.
Grease muffin pan
Cut tortillas into 4ths and line the muffin pan with tortillas
Spoon the following into mixture: ground turkey, black beans & salsa
Top with cheddar cheese
Bake for 10 minutes (or until cheese is browned & bubbly)
Remove from pan & add toppings to taste!

This was so easy & so yummy! I think it would be prefect for a party! :)
