- In a large pan, brown the ground beef along with the taco seasoning. Add the black beans and allow to simmer together for 7-10 minutes.
- Heat oven to 350°F and spray the underside of a large muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
- Cut out circular shapes from the Casa Mendosa® tortillas using a metal cookie cutter. Using Casa Mendosa® 10 inch Tortillas you can cut out 2-3 circular shapes per tortilla.
- Place the cut out circular shapes in the underside of the muffin tin as a mold. Be careful not to let the tortillas fold too closely into the middle.
- Bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the tortilla cups have hardened slightly on all sides. Remove and set aside.
- Spoon cooked ground beef mixture into each tortilla cup, then garnish with tomatoes, cilantro, corn, red onions, sour cream, sprinkle with green onions and enjoy!
