Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 12

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Ground beef (80/20) Lean
  • 3 tbsp Taco seasoning Or one 1 oz packet
  • 0.25 cup Water
  • 24 Wonton wrappers Square
  • 1.5 cup Cheddar cheese Shredded
  • 0.5 cup Diced fresh tomatoes
  • 0.5 cup Guacamole
  • 0.25 cup Sour cream
  • 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro Chopped
  • 1 spray Cooking spray For greasing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin lightly with cooking spray.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground meat until fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes). Drain excess fat.
  • Stir the taco seasoning and water into the skillet. Simmer on low heat for 2-3 minutes until the liquid thickens and coats the meat. Remove from heat.
  • Press one wonton wrapper into each cup of the prepared muffin tin. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the seasoned meat mixture into each wrapper, then top with 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese.
  • Place a second wonton wrapper over the first layer, pressing gently. Add another tablespoon of meat and top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the wrappers are golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a serving platter.
  • Top each cup evenly with diced tomatoes, guacamole, sour cream, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
