Ingredients
- 1 can (16.3 ounces) refrigerated biscuits (such as Pillsbury Grands! Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits, 8 count)
- 1 lb. ground beef (or sub with ground turkey or ground chicken)
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Optional garnish: sliced green onions, sliced olives, sliced avocado, or sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Spray 8 cups of a standard-size muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Cook ground meat in a large skillet until no longer pink. Drain; return meat to skillet, and season with taco seasoning according to package instructions.
- Flatten biscuits with your fingers (or roll out) so that they become larger and thinner (about 4.5 inches in diameter). Press into bottom and up sides of prepared muffin cups.
- Spoon a few tablespoons of taco meat into the bottom of each biscuit cup, packing it down and adding more if it will fit.
- Top meat mixture with a tablespoon or two of salsa and about 1-2 tablespoons of shredded cheese.
- Gently press down the cheese so that it is centered over the filling and is not spilling over the edges of the pan.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until cheese is melted and edges of biscuits are golden brown.
- Remove muffin pan to a wire rack and gently run a knife around the edge of each biscuit to loosen.
- Use a spoon to carefully remove biscuit cups from pan. Serve hot and garnish with optional toppings.
