Ranch Nacho Cups Recipes

Steps:

• In a small skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is no longer pink and onion is tender, 5-7 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in cheeses, corn, tomatoes, taco seasoning, jalapeno and the chipotle pepper; set aside., Preheat oven to 375°. Place 1 sheet phyllo dough on a work surface; brush lightly with butter. Cover with another sheet of phyllo; brush with butter. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) , Cut the 2 layered sheets into three 14x3-in. strips. Place 1 tablespoon filling about 1 inch from corner of each strip. Fold 1 corner of dough over filling, forming a triangle. Fold triangle over, forming another triangle. Continue folding, like a flag, until you reach the end of the strip. Brush end of dough with butter and press onto triangle to seal. Turn triangle and brush top with butter. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling., Place triangles on greased baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Combine ranch dressing and salsa; serve with triangles. Freeze option: Freeze cooled triangles in freezer containers. To use, reheat triangles on a greased baking sheet in a preheated 375° oven until crisp and heated through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place a baking sheet in the oven to preheat for 10 minutes.
• Fit a wonton wrapper into each cup of a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin, pushing the wrapper down to the bottom of the cup, and crimping as necessary so that it forms a cup.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and cook, stirring until softened, about 1 minute.
• Add the beef and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring until brown, about 4 minutes. Add the taco seasoning and stir to combine.
• Remove the skillet from the heat. Use a slotted spoon to transfer and transfer the taco meat to a bowl and drain off the fat.
• Add the cheese, pickled jalapenos and beans to the taco meat and toss to combine. Season with salt.
• Fill the wonton-lined muffin cups with the beef mixture, place the muffin tin on the preheated baking sheet and bake until the wrappers are crisp and golden brown, about 17 minutes.
• Remove the nacho cups from the muffin tin and arrange on a platter.
• Top with the diced avocado, pico de gallo and sour cream, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Use a knife to smear about one teaspoon of refried beans on each chip. Note: You will use only 1/4 to 1/2 can of refried beans.
• Place the bean-topped chips onto a microwaveable plate or dish. Overlap the chips rather than piling them up.
• Pour the can of Ranch Style Beans evenly over the chips. Note: I don't drain the beans, but you may prefer less juice.
• Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the chips.
• Microwave about 4-5 minutes.
• Serve with chilled sour cream, jalapenos, and Tabasco Sauce.
