Bake Tortillas To Make A Taco Salad Shell

Homemade taco shells are a delicious way to enjoy your salad.


A taco salad in a tortilla bowl offers a compromise between a healthful and delicious meal. This dish is versatile since you have the option of including meat and cheese in your salad. Determine the size of the bowls and tortillas that you will use based on the size of the salads you want to prepare. A tortilla makes the meal substantial and adds variety to a plain salad.


Instructions


1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.








2. Wrap the tortillas between two paper towels and microwave on high for 20 seconds. They should be soft and hot so that they will take on the shape of a bowl.


3. Spread 1 tbsp. olive oil over one side of each tortilla. Ensure that the oil covers the entire side.








4. Spray the six bowls with non-stick cooking spray.


5. Press the soft, hot tortillas into the bowls. Mold the tortillas into the shape of the bowl. Ensure that the side coated with olive oil is facing up.


6. Bake the bowls for 18 minutes. Remove when the tortillas are browned and crisped to suit your taste.
