Taco Cups

I have said this at least a dozen times... One thing that our family can all agree on eating is Tacos!  Here is another way to change up the regular old tacos and an even better way to serve them at a party!

Ingredients:

• 1 lb Ground Beef
• Your FavoriteTaco Seasoning
• Refried Beans
• 48 Wonton Wrappers
• Shredded Cheddar Cheese
• Salsa
• Sour Cream

Makes 24 Taco Cups

Cook the ground beef and add taco seasoning according to season packet.  Preheat oven to 375.  Place one Wonton wrapper in each space of a regular size muffin tin.  Smear (now that is one word I have NEVER used when writing a recipe lol) about a tablespoon of refried beans on top of each of the wrappers.  Sprinkle about a tablespoon of the taco meat in each cup, then sprinkle a little cheddar cheese on top of the meat.  Add another Wonton wrapper and gently press down.  Add a little more meat and cheese.

 Bake for about 10 minutes or until Wonton wrappers are golden brown.  Remove from oven and top with shredded lettuce, sour cream, and salsa.  I placed mine on a small bed of cilantro rice, but you could easily add the rice before the lettuce.  These little taco cupcakes are perfect party food or dinner time!

Tufano Salsa Dip

 

 The Tufano family holds a very special place in our hearts. Lucy, Tracy and Sherrie all met the exact same day while working together at Bath and Body Works and we have been friends ever since. Lucy often had us over to her house for get togethers. She always made sure to have snacks for everyone. This salsa dip was something that we could always expect her to serve. It is something that you can throw together very quickly and it tastes SO good!

 

Ingredients:

• 1 Block of Cream Cheese
• 3/4 Cup Chi-Chi's Salsa (I am usually not a stickler about brands but with this it is a MUST!)
• 1 Cup Shredded Cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
• Tortilla Chips (my kids really like it with pretzels)

With mixer blend together cream cheese and salsa. Add in 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Blend. Pour dip into serving bowl and top with remaining cheese.
