Mini Rant about the pin: The taco bowl pin drove me a little nuts because when I went to go look at the original instructions there were none! This was an actual upload by a user so it didn't link up to a website and the pin itself didn't have any instructions. I'll repin my own picture in a bit with instructions so that there's a good copy out there on Pintrest for everyone to repin. End of rant. :)
Last month my boyfriend decided he wants to start budgeting a little better so we went grocery shopping. Some Guerrero corn tortillas were on sale so we grabbed a pack. Once we got home he decided to have a snack and took one bite of it and almost immediately had a frown on his face. Apparently these are not the tortillas that he likes. So since we bought them and we have them I turned to Pintrest for some ways to spice them up a bit so that they're more to his liking. This quick and simple recipe did the trick! He loved them and said they were way better this time. (I made this over at my boyfriend's house and only had my phone so pictures aren't that great but hopefully you can get a good idea of what is going on)
Here's the original pin for the taco shells: http://pinterest.com/pin/231724343298465668/ I used the instructions from this pin to make both shapes of tortilla.
What you'll need:
- Cooking oil (spray or have a brush handy is recommended)
- Tortillas
- Oven rack
- Muffin tin
- Oven @ 375°F
First microwave your tortillas wrapped in paper towel for at least 30 seconds. This gets them soft and flexible so that they won't break as easily when you're handling them. I didn't have a brush handy or a spray so I poured some olive oil onto a plate and then dipped the tortilla evenly on both sides.
