Ingredients

2 Pounds Ground Beef I use 90% lean
1 Medium Onion Diced
1 Ounce Taco Seasoning
10 ½ Ounces Cream of Mushroom Soup
Salt and Pepper to taste
24 Wonton Wrappers
2 Cups Cheddar Cheese Shredded
1/2 Cup Sour Cream
1/4 Cup Fresh Tomatoes Diced
¼ Cup Lettuce Shredded
¼ Cup Hot Sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a skillet, add the ground beef. As the beef is cooking, make sure to break it up into small pieces.
2 Pounds Ground Beef
When the beef if almost done cooking, add the diced onion and cook until translucent.
1 Medium Onion
Add the taco seasoning, salt, pepper, shredded cheese, and cream of mushroom soup to a large mixing bowl. Add the cooked beef and onion mixture and stir to combine.
1 Ounce Taco Seasoning, Salt and Pepper, 10 ½ Ounces Cream of Mushroom Soup
Place one wonton wrapper into the bottom of each muffin cup. This makes approximately 24 cups. You can spray each cup with a bit of cooking spray if you think they might stick. However, I have not had a problem with the wonton wrappers sticking at all.
24 Wonton Wrappers
Spoon the meat mixture into the wonton wrapper filling each approximately half full. About 1 heaping tablespoon.
Bake for 25 minutes or until edges are browned and cheese is melted.
2 Cups Cheddar Cheese
Top each taco cup with a small dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of lettuce, tomatoes, and hot sauce if desired.
1/2 Cup Sour Cream, 1/4 Cup Fresh Tomatoes, ¼ Cup Lettuce, ¼ Cup Hot Sauce

Notes

Optional Appetizer Topping Ideas

Additional toppings such as green onions, hot sauce, salsa, guacamole, chopped cilantro, sliced olives, minced red onion, refried beans, lime wedges, Pico de Gallo, Jalapenos, or avocado sliced thin would be delicious too.
