these were great, I'll really happy to that they are vegitarian too. I mixed all the filling together and scooped it into the cups. Next time I will use 1/2 the cheese. I used the small corn tortillas and they were the perfect size. Next time I'll add 1/2 the cheese to the mixture and leave the other 1/2 for on top (I might also try using a tex-mex cheese). I used a whole can of black beans and instead of chili powder used about 1 TBSP of taco seasoning. Next time I'm going to add about 1 1/2 cups of cooked rice at my hubbys request. I might also add more vegggies. But this recipe is great on its on but will be awsome with these changes.

I have made these a few times for parties & they always get eaten up. I add or subtract things that I don't have on hand. I mix all the ingredients together except the cheese, & just sprinkle it on top.

Awesome - so open to versatility. Next time I will drain my salsa...had the same problem as others with the salsa making the tortillas too wet. Was so delish though!!!

Perfect! I've also used different types of tortilla-- the flavored wraps (green, red, wheat) with excellent results. They freeze beautifully and reheat well, so these are perfect to make up ahead of time for the holidays or for parties. Served with Mexican sour cream (crema) and fresh salsa as toppings... and fresh chopped cilantro on the side, yum!

I added taco seasoning, and cooked chicken. Like the other reviewers, I quartered the flour torillas instead of cutting out circles. They were pretty big to use as a finger appetizer so next time I'll use mini muffin tins, and cut smaller pieces of tortilla.

I love how versatile this is! The combination of ingredients stated in the recipe is delicious, but if you don't have everything on hand you can easily substitute things. The first time I tried it out I followed the recipe, but second time I didn't have black beans so I used refried beans and they came out beautifully. I mix the cheese right in rather than sprinkling it on top and I increase the chili powder b/c I like it hot. Thanks for the recipe, this one's a keeper!

I made these tonight for dinner as opposed to an appetizer. I added taco meat and mixed all ingredients together before filling. Served with sliced avocado. Pretty tasty....they disappeared quickly and it was a good way to use up some leftover tortillas. Thank you for sharing your recipe, sal.

These were good enough that my husband suggested we make them for a party. I cut mine into triangles and added beef with taco seasining and chili powder mixed in. I also added chopped tomatoes and green onion and cheese and then we dipped them in sour cream and taco sauce. Changes for next time would be to add some green chilies and more seasoning to the beef. It didn't have enough kick. Someone mentioend hot sauce so I may try that.

These are great and easy. I use mini muffin tins and cut small circles of tortilla so it fits and spray the tin with Pam so they don't stick. I also mix all the ingredients together, usually black beans, salsa, peppers, onions and cheese- it's much easier to then put in the tortillas. Bake about 10 minutes until the tortillas crisp up enough to just pull out. Nice bite size snack. Always asked to bring to parties.
