Taco Tuesday! Or really any day of the week when you’re craving one of the most delicious foods ever created. What I love about this recipe is it’s super simple to make, it comes in a personal serving, or five, and you can make a dozen at a time. Perfect for feeding a lot of mouths all at once or storing to eat at a future time.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
12 Wonton wrappers
1 tbsp. Olive oil
1 lb. Organic ground turkey meat (ground beef works too)
2-3 tsp. Taco Seasoning
2 cups Shredded Cheddar cheese
1 can refried beans (pinto or black beans both work)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
I bunch cilantro, chopped
2 stalks green onion, chopped
Sour cream, for topping
HOW TO MAKE:
Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease muffin pan with a little cooking oil. Place a wonton wrapper into each cup of muffin pan, folding the edges if necessary. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and ground meat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Season with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper and cook until the meat is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Drain fat.
Spoon cooked meat mixture into each wonton. Next, add a spoonful of refried beans and then top with shredded cheddar. Bake until the wontons are golden around the edges and the cheese has melted, about 8-10 minutes.
Garnish with sour cream, cilantro, or green onions. Enjoy!
