The mini tortilla bowls are simple to make. First off you need to heat each corn tortilla in microwave for 30 seconds to soften.
Next, use a 3-inch cutter (like a jar lid) and cut 2 circles from each tortilla.
Press each circle into the cup of a mini muffin pan, folding sides as needed. Place in 350 oven for about 12 minutes (until tortilla is crispy). Place each shell on cooling rack and fill with taco meat. Top with cheese and diced tomato and a leaf of cilantro (optional).

Looks delicious. Wondering if these can be served in Tostitos Scoops Chips instead of making your own bowls and wasting all the tortilla scraps not used in the original recipe?

I think you could easily use Tostitos scoops. Let me know if you try it.
