Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped lettuce
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 avocado diced
  • 1 small tomato chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray. Form 8 piles with the shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 5-6 minutes, until the edges of the cheese start to brown.
  • Remove the tray from the oven and let cool for a few minutes until cool enough to handle.
  • Peel each cheese round off the parchment paper and mold it to the inside of a muffin tin to cool.
  • In a medium pan, cook the ground beef on medium high heat until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Add the chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to incorporate. You can add a tablespoon of water to help disperse the spices, if necessary.
  • Fill each cheese cup with meat, lettuce, sour cream, avocado, tomato, and cilantro.
