Cheesy Taco Shells

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup reduced fat finely shredded cheddar cheese for each shell

Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Draw 6-inch circles on the parchment (can use a small appetizer plate to trace if desired). Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese within each circle and spread thin. Place in oven and bake 6-8 minutes until edges are brown and crispy. Remove from oven; quickly and gently bend each shell over edge of a large mixing bowl or rectangle casserole dish to form shell. Let cool and fill with desired protein and toppings.
