Filling

  • 8 ounces cooked taco meat (I use 96% lean ground beef)

  • Roll portioned dough into balls and place in muffin tin. Work dough down on bottom and up the sides to form a cup.

  • After par baking the cups, add about a teaspoon of taco meat to each cup, then a sprinkling of cheese.
  • Return them to the oven and bake 10-12 minutes or until golden and the cheese is melted.
  • Let them cool about 5 minutes.
