Ingredients
1 lb lean ground beef, browned and drained
1 envelope (3 tablespoons) taco seasoning
1 (10-oz) can Ro-Tel diced tomatoes and green chiles, drained
1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (or Mexican blend)
24 wonton wrappers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a bowl, combine cooked ground beef, taco seasoning, and diced tomatoes with green chiles.
- Place one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup. Spoon about 1.5 tablespoons of taco mixture into each.
- Add 1 tablespoon of cheese on top.
- Press down lightly and repeat with another layer of wonton wrapper, taco mixture, and cheese.
- Bake for 11–13 minutes, until heated through and the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use ground chicken, turkey, or pork instead of beef for variation.
- Make it vegetarian by substituting beans or plant-based meat.
- Switch up the cheese with Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or queso fresco.
- Add spice with jalapeños, hot sauce, or extra chili powder.
- Top with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, or olives for serving.
- Store in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer for crispiness.
