Mini Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Generously brush butter onto both sides of the tortillas.
• Using a circular cookie cutter or a mason jar lid, cut the tortillas into small circles.
• Flip a 12-cup muffin tin over and place a cut-out piece of tortilla in the space between two cups, so that they make a mini taco shape. One muffin tin will fit 17 mini tacos.
• Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until just turning golden brown and crispy. (Times and temperatures may vary based on oven.) Make sure to check on them every couple of minutes to make sure they don't burn.
• Shred a rotisserie chicken, removing all bones and skin.
• Place shredded chicken in a large pan over medium-high heat and add salsa. Stir well to combine.
• Serve along with your favorite taco toppings.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook hamburger until browned.
• Drain the fat and stir in taco mix and 1/2 cup salsa/picante sauce.
• Simmer for 3-5 minutes.
• Press wonton wrappers into mini muffin cups.
• Spoon beef mixture in cups and top with the 3 tbsp of salsa and cheese, evenly divided.
• Bake in preheated 425°F oven for 8 minutes, or until the wontons are nicely browned.
• Serve with extra salsa, sour cream, olives and guacamole if desired.
• ENJOY!

Steps:

• Cut the tofu lengthwise into 7 even planks. Cut each plank lengthwise into thirds, then evenly dice into 1/2-inch pieces. Spread the diced tofu on a large baking sheet lined with a kitchen towel or paper towels. Cover with another towel to absorb the moisture. Set aside 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano and garlic powder in a large bowl. Season the tofu with salt, then toss with the cornstarch mixture to coat. Heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, until the tofu starts to brown slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Gently stir, then continue to cook, tossing, until golden brown all over and very crispy, 5 to 7 more minutes. Transfer the tofu to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with salt.
• Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until softened and hot, 30 to 45 seconds.
• Assemble the tacos: Place some cabbage in the center of each tortilla; top with a slice of avocado. Add some tofu, pico de gallo, a drizzle of crema, chopped cilantro and jalapeño. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and let simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Lay scoop-style tortilla chips out on a microwave-safe plate, and spoon in the prepared beef, working in batches as needed. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top and microwave until the cheese on top is completely melted, about 1 minute. It will be hot so don't eat it right away. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spray both sides of the tortillas with butter-flavored cooking spray. Cut small circles into the tortillas using a 2 3/4-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter. You should be able to get about 3 to 4 circles from each tortilla.
• Flip two 12-cup muffin tins upside down. Fold tortilla circles into a taco shape and arrange each into the space between 2 cups so they hold their shape. Each muffin tin will hold 17 mini tacos.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tacos are just starting to turn golden brown and crispy, checking every few minutes to make sure they don't burn, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Mix together chicken, corn, and salsa in a skillet and set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle cheese blend into the bottom of each taco shell, and fill with the chicken and corn mixture. Top with a dollop of sour cream.
