Ingredients

  • 24 wonton wrappers

For taco cups

  • 1 lb ground beef 85% lean
  • 3 tbs lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • 3/4 tbsp adobo
  • guacamole to taste
  • pico de Gallo to taste
  • taco cheese shredded, to taste

For lasagna cups

  • 1 lb ground beef 85% lean
  • 3 tbs lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • 3/4 tbsp adobo
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup traditional tomato sauce
  • mozzarella cheese shredded, to taste

For black bean cups

  • 1 16oz can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 8oz can corn kernels rinsed and drained
  • 3 tbsp hot salsa
  • guacamole to taste

Instructions

For the taco wonton cups

  • Heat oven to 375º degrees.
  • Brown the beef. Halfway through browning, add lime juice, oregano and adobo.
  • Make sure to drain leftover natural oil/fat from the beef. Set aside and keep warm.
  • To a 12 cup muffin pan, spray oil (I used Pam).
  • Lay two wonton wrappers in each muffin cup with edges going in different directions. (think of a flower layout).
  • Spray oil over all the wontons. This will ensure crispness on the inside too.
  • Bake for about 8 minutes. Keep an eye on them as not all ovens cook the same.
  • Once done, remove from the pan and allow to cool down.
  • Gather your toppings and let's fill these babies!
  • In mine, I started with beef, then guacamole, then pico de gallo and taco cheese. But feel free to make it yours as well.

For the lasagna wonton cups

  • Follow the directions for the taco wontons up until you finish baking the wontons.
  • In a bowl, mix the ricotta and the egg.
  • Let's assemble our lasagna cups.
  • Start with a thin layer of the ricotta mixture followed by beef, tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Place back in the oven for about 5 minutes or until the cheese melts and enjoy!

For the black bean wonton cups

  • Follow the directions for the taco wontons up until you finish baking the wontons.
  • Mix the black beans, the corn and the hot salsa.
  • Let's assemble our cups!
  • Start with a layer of guacamole and top with the black bean mixture.
  • Super simple right? Enjoy!
