Provided by Grace Elkus

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

0.5 tablespoon olive oil
1 bunch scallions (about 6), thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
0.5 teaspoon chipotle chili powder or regular chili powder
0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
0.5 pound ground beef
1 4-ounce can diced green chiles
0.75 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
0.5 cup grated pepper Jack cheese
1 13-ounce bag restaurant-style tortilla chips
Avocado, sour cream, pico de gallo, pickled jalapenos, and cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the beef and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the green chiles.
  • Combine the cheeses in a small bowl. Line the cups of a muffin tin with tortilla chips, breaking to cover bottom and line sides. Divide ⅓ of the cheese mixture among cups. Divide ½ of the beef mixture among cups and top with half of the remaining cheese mixture. Top with remaining beef mixture, and finish with cheese. Bake until the cups are heated through, cheese is melted, and the edges are browned, 9 to 11 minutes.
  • Just before serving, top each cup with diced avocado, sour cream, pico de gallo, pickled jalapeños, and fresh cilantro.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb extra lean ground beef
250 ml salsa
1 (10 ounce) bag Tostitos Scoops
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream or 1 cup guacamole

Steps:

  • Cook the ground beef on medium to high heat in a non stick pan until brown and no longer pink.
  • Drain the ground beef and rinse your pan and add beef back to your pan.
  • Pour the jar of Salsa into beef mixture and let simmer until the beef fully absorbs the sauce. The longer you let simmer the better it will taste.
  • While the mixture is cooking, heat oven to 350 degrees and place a cooking sheet on any flat oven pan. Place the Tostitos scoop cups facing up in on the pan.
  • Once the mixture is ready you can spoon it into Tostitos scoop cups and sprinkle with the cheddar cheese.
  • Cook in the oven until the cheese is melted.
  • Place each scoop cup on a platter and you can either leave sour cream or guacamole on the side or add to each cup.

12 square wonton wrappers
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 scallions, chopped
1/2 pound ground beef
Kosher salt
1 tablespoons taco seasoning
1 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
1/4 cup chopped pickled jalapenos
Half a 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 medium avocado, diced
1/2 cup pico de gallo, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place a baking sheet in the oven to preheat for 10 minutes.
  • Fit a wonton wrapper into each cup of a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin, pushing the wrapper down to the bottom of the cup, and crimping as necessary so that it forms a cup.

  • Add the beef and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring until brown, about 4 minutes. Add the taco seasoning and stir to combine.

  • Add the cheese, pickled jalapenos and beans to the taco meat and toss to combine. Season with salt.
  • Fill the wonton-lined muffin cups with the beef mixture, place the muffin tin on the preheated baking sheet and bake until the wrappers are crisp and golden brown, about 17 minutes.
  • Remove the nacho cups from the muffin tin and arrange on a platter.
  • Top with the diced avocado, pico de gallo and sour cream, and serve immediately.
