• 1-2 tablespoons taco seasoning
• 1 package (8 count) flour tortillas
• shredded cheese
• lettuce
• cilantro
• sour cream
• salsa
• guacamole (optional)
• black olives (optional)

Heat oven to 350°F.

Brown ground beef with taco seasoning.

Cut tortillas in half, then in half again, making four pieces. Place two pieces in each hole of the muffin tin. Place browned ground beef in each hole, then top with shredded cheese. Bake 15 minutes, or until tortillas reach desired crispiness.

Using a knife, shred lettuce and cilantro. Top each cup with sour cream, salsa, lettuce, and cilantro, as desired. Add guacamole and olives, if desired.
