Tiny Taco Cups (Super Bowl LII)

Why not attempt some hors d'louvres for what the nation has come to know as "Super Bowl Sunday"? These tiny shells of delight will both fill you and make you want interested in trying different yummy combinations.

Step 1: Brush small tortilla shells with butter.

We cut circles out of flower tortillas, but my mom is gluten free. So we put those in the oven for a couple of minutes to help make them more pliable and less breakable.

Step 2: Season with salt, garlic powder, and chili powder. Then insert into muffin tin.

This is for the outside of the shell, but you can season it with the garlic and chili powder again once they're placed in the tins.

Step 3: Bake shell cups at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until crisp.

Keep an eye on them. They looked pretty done pretty early. While this is happening, do the next step!

Step 3.5: Prepare ground beef (with your favorite seasoning).

Step 4: Once the taco shells are done, fill them with the meat and toppings such as cheese, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream, avocado, etc.

These held together surprisingly well. Even when eating them, they didn't crumble apart or fall all over the plate in a mess one might normally create when eating tacos. I'd say these were a definite and delicious success!

This recipe is from a Kroger leaflet and I couldn't find it online so HERE is an alternate version from Tasty! Happy Super Bowl LII!
