Taco Bowl Time!

Serve whatever toppings you want on top of chips, or bake your own taco bowls! Put each topping in a small bowl and let everyone put together their own salads. Be sure to get an adult’s help.

Taco Bowls

8-inch (20-cm) flour tortillas

oven-proof soup bowls

1 or 2 large baking sheets

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
Gently press a tortilla into each bowl. Put the bowls on the baking sheets.
Bake for 14–16 minutes, until light brown. Leave the tortillas in the bowl for 5 minutes before taking them out and filling with toppings.
