These cute little Taco Salad Bowls are so easy to make and they are a favorite of my kids. It is pretty fun to be able to pick up your taco salad and crunch away! 🙂 You just need a few simple ingredients, a cupcake pan and an oven.
Baked Mini Taco Salad Bowls
Ingredients
- 6 corn tortillas*
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
- *can also use small whole wheat tortillas
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spray or brush each tortilla with a thin coat of olive oil. It is best to use fresh tortillas, but if they need softening just wrap them in a damp paper towel and put them in the microwave for 10 seconds.
- Press each tortilla into one hole of the cupcake pan. The edges will fold and overlap some. Don't worry if they crack just a little, once baked they will still hold the filling.
- Sprinkle each bowl with a little salt. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are crisp and slightly brown. Rotate the pan halfway through baking to avoid burning in hot spots.
- The middle will still be slightly flexible, but will crisp as it cools. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and then check for crispness. If the middle is still soft, return them to the oven for 3-5 minutes.
- Fill with Salsa Chicken, lettuce, avocado, and your favorite taco fixings. Leftover empty bowls can be stored in a ziplock bag for up to a week.
