Ingredients
4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
1 lb ground beef
1 packet taco seasoning (or 2 tbsp homemade)
1/2 cup water
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen, thawed)
2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 cup salsa
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray the outside of 4 oven-safe bowls with nonstick spray. Press one tortilla into each bowl, shaping it to form a bowl. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp. Let cool.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef until browned, breaking it up. Drain excess fat.
Add taco seasoning and water to the beef. Stir and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in black beans and corn; cook until heated through.
Assemble bowls: Place a tortilla bowl on each plate. Divide lettuce among bowls. Top with beef mixture, then tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, cilantro, avocado slices, and salsa.
Tips
For a lighter version, use ground turkey or chicken.
You can make tortilla bowls ahead and store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Customize toppings with jalapeños, olives, or hot sauce.
