Description

Use up leftover chilli and make these quick and easy Taco Cups filled with green and black olives, cheese and red peppers.


Ingredients

  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 150g leftover chilli or refried beans (hot or cold)
  • 150g cooked rice (hot or cold)
  • 50g pitted green olives, chopped
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • handful of lettuce, shredded
  • 25g pitted black olives, sliced
  • 50g grated cheddar cheese
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • sour cream and salsa to serve

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180c.
  2. Using a round pastry cutter (approximately 11cm diameter) cut into the tortillas to make 8 mini tortillas. Spray a muffin tin with a little spray oil and push the mini tortillas into the muffin holes. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from the muffin tin and allow the taco cups to cool.
  3. Meanwhile make the filling by mixing the refried beans or leftover chilli with the cooked rice and pitted green olives. Add a large spoonful of this mixture to each of the taco cups.
  4. Top with the red pepper, lettuce, sliced black olives, grated cheese and spring onions.
  5. Serve immediately with sour cream and salsa.
