Taco Tartlets

The bright colors in these zippy little tarts make any gathering a festive one. They freeze well, too.





List of Ingredients



• FILLING:
  
• 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
  
• 2 T taco sauce
  
• 3 T chopped ripe olives
  
• 1 cup coarsely crushed tortilla chips
  
• MEAT SHELLS:
  
• 1 lb ground beef
  
• 2 T taco seasoning
  
• 2 T water
  
• 1 cup (4 oz) shredded cheddar cheese
  






Instructions



1. In a mixing bowl, combine filling ingredients; set aside.
   
2. In another bowl, combine beef, taco seasoning and water; mix well. Press into bottom and sides of mini-muffin cups. Place a teaspoonful of filling into each meat shell; sprinkle with cheese.
   
3. Bake at 425 degrees for 7-8 minutes or until beef is cooked and filling is bubbly. Remove immediately from pan. Serve warm.
