The idea for these were based on a Hungry Girl recipe but we didn't actually have it so I have nothing to quote. We made the taco bowls in the oven. We tried two different but similar ways. For both, we heated a tortilla in the microwave and draped it over one of the pyrex glass bowls. With one, we just sprayed it with pam and with the other, we used an additional pyrex dish over it to push it into place. Then we baked them at around 450 for around 15 min. I didn't actually measure the time. Just until they were crispy. Anyway, the ones with the additional bowl had a nicer shape but the tortilla part with the second bowl steamed and didn't get very crisp. So, I think the method without the second bowl was better.

The salad was lean taco meat, some green leaf lettuce, tomato, salsa (as salad dressing) and cheese. Overall, it was pretty good. Not really much to the salad as much as the bowl. It was a quick meal though.
