How to make tortilla bowls? easy salad without dishes!
What if we turned our corn tortillas into bowls to hold a mixed salad? A fluted mold, a trip to the oven, and you're done ;-) We'll explain how we did it in the instructions below ↓ For the rest, just combine the ingredients of your choice ;-)
Ingredients
Materials
- Pie mold
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Moisten your tortillas with a little water (especially the edges to prevent cracking when placing them in the mold) and microwave for about 40 seconds.
Once softened, it will be easier to position them in the mold. Make sure the tortilla fits well inside the mold by pressing with your fingers.
Bake them in the oven for 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop your salad ingredients.
Once cooked, unmold your tortillas and let them cool before filling them.
In order, we added the baby spinach, red beans, cherry tomatoes, corn, black olives, avocado, fried onions, and chopped cilantro.
Season with a drizzle of olive oil and squeezed lemon juice.
Enjoy your meal!
