Taco Snacks Recipes

TACO SNACKS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375^. Spray 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.Set aside.
• 2. Brown beef or turkey in a hot skillet and drain any fat. Add the taco seasoning mix and 2/3 cup water; simmer for 4 minutes. Set aside. In a medium bowl mix the bisquick and 1/2 cup liquid until blended. The mixture will be thick like pizza dough.
• 3. Press 1 to 2 Tablespoons of dough into bottom of each muffin cup and press slightly up sides. Spoon an equal amount of meat mixture in each cup then your choice of beans ( I like to use pinto beans or refried beans) equally in each.
• 4. Bake for 8 minutes and remove from oven. Sprinkle cheese equally among the cups and continue to bake for 2 more minutes or until cheese has melted. Remove from muffin tin after 3 minutes and garnish with your favorite toppings.

TACOS

Steps:

• Cook meat, onion, garlic and cilantro stirring often til meat is no longer pink. Drain fat.
• Add seasoning and 3/4 cup water or beer to meat mixture and stir to blend. Only use beer if you like beer! lol You could also use half beer and half water. DH always comes in and adds a glug or two from his can behind my back so I never know exactly how much is in there! grrrr.
• Simmer until liquid has evaporated.
• Serve with desired toppings. Get creative! Use what you like!
• This can fill tortillas, corn or flour, or be used to top corn or tortilla chips. When I make this I make a taco salad on my plate, dd makes that or some tacos and dh always makes nachos putting only cheese on top and microwaving til the cheese is melty. To each his own! I get three different meals with one skillet! Happy mama!
