Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    Special equipment needed:
    Mini muffin tins

    4 corn tortillas
    3/4 cup fat-free refried beans
    1 1/2 teaspoons Chef Meg's Taco Seasoning
    2 tablespoons black beans, drained and rinsed
    2 tablespoons sharp cheddar, shredded
    2 tablespoons salsa

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use a round cookie cutter to cut three circles from each tortilla. Place one circle in each cup of a mini muffin tin. After all the tortillas are in the cups, spray the top of the sheets with nonstick spray.

Combine the refried beans and taco seasoning. Fill each cup 3/4 of the way full with the seasoned beans. Top with a half teaspoon each of the black beans and cheese. Bake 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from oven and top with 1/2 teaspoon salsa.

Makes 12 mini cups. Serve warm.

    Baked Tostitos Scoops are also a good idea! - 12/26/10

    Used wonton wrappers instead of phyllo and turned out well. Served these appetizers at New Year's Eve get together and they were quite popular...I will be making again for sure :)! - 1/2/11

    It appears that Chef Meg maybe changed the recipe. You can get the idea guys, quit picking everything apart. Phyllo dough, won ton wrappers, corn tortills, whatever. Sounds great to me either way. Lighten up! - 9/9/14

    That picture does not look like it uses phyllo dough. It almost looks like a small corn tortilla fried. Where's the beans in the photo? Looks good though. I've made bigger versions using corn tortillas & baked them for a taco salad. Big hit in my house each week! - 10/30/12
