MINI-TACO BAKES I got this indea on Pinterest :))
Sorry the pics are kinda blurry, but you get the idea!
wonton wrappers- 6 wonton wrappers - 320 calories for 3 taco bakes
ground beef- 164 calories for 3 ounces - I used a pound total
cheese - 110 calories- 1/4 cup for 3 taco bakes
and whatever taco toppings you like: lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, etc.
594 calories for 3 taco bakes
or 198 each
You could go with just 1 wonton wrapper for each one, but I like doing two, which would make each taco bake 144 calories.
So, you cook up your ground beef. I spray a muffin tin. Then you take two wonton wrappers (can find these near the bag salad)and I layer them on top of each other, but making it look like a star--tilting one wrapper to the side. Spoon in the hamburger meat, and cheese. Then you cook on 375 for 8 minutes! Add whatever you want!
YUP!!! Quick and easy :) I love them because they taste fried--almost like fried burritos, but they are baked! It's the texture that I dig :))
